Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This sun tolerant and fragrant hosta has the shine of a plastic plant, medium green with a bright cream to white margin which is very exciting to the eye. It has good substance and makes an attractive somewhat upright clump. It also sports very fragrant lavender flowers in August.
Glossy & leathery, bright olive green leaves with 1/4” wide gold margins that age to creamy white with rippled edges. Fragrant pale lavender flowers in late summer. Plant in partial sun to light shade. Medium-large hosta.
Green with a white edge. Some streaking. Purple flowers.
