Plant Type: Hostas

This sport of Hosta ‘Andrew’ has similar traits as its sibling, but with much more vigor, thanks to the green streaks that appear in late summer. Like ‘Andrew,’ ‘Hans’ has corrugated, puckered, and folded leaves, with ruffling at the base.  Glaucous blue-green, rounded leaves have a showy wide, feathery, white center with green jetting between the center and margin. Pale lavender flowers appear in early to midsummer.
