This medium sized hosta forms a dense mound about 13” high. The leaves are heart shaped and blue green and about 5×7”. They are very glaucous on the underside with undulated edges. The origin is tardina x sieboldiana “Elegans” and the leaves are nice and thick. Pale lavender flowers open in July.

This classic goldish yellow plant practically glows in the dark. Immature leaves can be a little greener. They are corrugated with a nice heavy texture and because of this are slug resistant. The plant is large enough to work as a contrast plant for the big blues.
The flowers are lavender to near white and appear rather late.
The plant can take some morning sun and the plants are fertile.
This hosta has more registered sports than any other.

Hosta Blue Cadet
This small to medium sized hosta forms a perfectly round 15” clump of heart shaped leaves that have heavy substance and therefore resist slugs. The leaves are bluish green and come to a tapered point. Lavender flowers appear in June. This fast growing plant makes a nice edger.

A blend of light pink, melon and gold with a full wide form and very ruffled petals; this beauty is 30″ tall. The 6” blooms have very wide round top petals and narrower lower petals which are equally ruffled. The bloom season is mid to late. I cannot find documentation, but it behaves like a dormant tetraploid.
