Viewer discretion is advised with this titillating mini hosta. The long narrow leaves have white centres with a thin, heavily rippled green margin and bright purple flowers in summer. Miniature hostas are great in shady containers or troughs, at the front of the border or along pathways. Dangerous for collectors who will want to have many more than just one!
