Hosta 'Praying Hands'
Butterfly IconHummingbird Icon

Plant Type: Hostas

Wavy twisted foliage stands upright. Looks as though hands are folded and praying. This is one neat looking hosta! Perhaps we should call this the un-hosta, as Hosta ‘Praying Hands’ is the most un-hosta looking hosta to ever hit the market. Each small, 18″ wide clump is composed of strangely folded, dark green crinkled leaves, each with a narrow creamy yellow border.
