Lavender flowers. Fertile.
Glossy, upright, green with white margin.
A real stunner in the garden.
This Lachman hybrid of H. 'Resonance' has 6" heart shaped leaves of rich green, surrounded by a wide creamy white edge. One of my favorite features is the bright reddish purple pigment on the petioles that provides a dramatic color combination within the foliage. The upright, spreading growth habit produces a 2' wide clump, which is topped in mid summer with 20" scapes of light lavender flowers.
A medium green with glossy leaves and creamy white margins; lavender flowers.
An upright plant with beautiful heart-shaped leaves with wavy edges, green with a 1" creamy white margin. Purple flowers.
Lush green leaves are bordered in creamy white. Clumps are 2' across by 14" high. Beautiful form. Perfect size for the border. Lavender flowers. Vernalized.
A knockout with frosted green leaves edged in cream. The leaves are held up to show off the complementary red petioles. Lavender flowers.
