Info | =sieboldii 'Alba'. The yellow-green leaves are boadly lanceolate with 3-4 veins on each side of the midrib. Pure white funnel-shaped flowers stand well above the foliage in July and August. Shade. We love hostas with great flowers and this is one of our favorites that is rarely seen. The leaves look like lettuce - 4" long green ovals, but the flower stalks rise to about 18", with large pure white flowers in late summer. It is stoloniferous and makes a nice groundcover. Easy but very special. |
