Plant Type: Hostas

Beautiful color, a H. ‘Halcyon’ seedling that makes a medium-sized mound of light blue rounded leaves that hold their color through most of the season even in warmer climates. Light lavender flowers in July and August. A “blue” that will tolerate morning sun. More glaucous than most.
