    Plant Type: Hostas

    This is a giant hosta that offers an upright growth habit with blue-green leaves. In the spring, it has yellow margins. As the summer progresses, the leaves become more green, and the margins more cream-colored. The very large leaves are rounded heavy corrugation. The cream margin is also corrugated. Give this vigorous hosta space, as it will become very large. Under perfect conditions, this hosta will reach 45 inches tall by 60 inches wide. Pale lavender flowers appear in summer.
