Info | First Look 2004 Mildred Seaver Award (Best Seedling Attendees). Red petiole color from base to well into the leaf, remains through season. This release from Arthur Wrede of the Azalea Patch features wedge-shaped green leaves with nice dark red petioles, with the red pigment extending up into the leaf blade. A pretty plant for hosta hybridizers and collectors who covet red stems in their breeding programs and gardens. |
