Nursery contributed plant descriptions

'Blue Elf' is a miniature Hosta similar to 'Blue Mouse Ear's but with larger leaves in a true powder blue colour. Lavender 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!
