The foliage of this hosta is swept in dozens of shades of green, like a glorious free-form watercolor. Each heart-shaped leaf is a unique, with shades and brush a different from the next. This is one of a handful of garden plants that gets noticed and admired all season long. Even the hummingbirds stop to visit the racemes of lavender flowers in mid-summer. If this leaf design was available as a dress, we'd snag it and wear it weekly.
