InfoRare Hosta 'Mount Tom' (Lachman 95).
A medium/large (19" high) semi-upright plant with (10" x 10") intence blue corrigated, with a 1 1/2" creamy white margined leaves with heavy substance.
This Hosta 'Christmas Tree' hybrid is without a doubt one of the finest releases from the Lachman's stellar breeding program. Each large corrugated dark green leaf is surrounded by what is possibly the finest wide cream edge ever on a hosta. Each stunning 3' wide clump is topped in mid summer with 2' tall scapes of light lavender flowers. This is truly an incredible specimen plant.
