Hosta 'Academy Celeborn'
 

This cultivar is a seedling of H. 'Ginko Craig' which was registered in 2000 by Steve Chamberlain of New York. It is a large size plant which grows to about 24 inches in height with bluish-green foliage. The leaves are oblong-ovate in shape with bloom on the underside. White flowers bloom in July.

According to The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "How this is a descendant of 'Ginko Craig' is beyond my understanding. The only thing they seem to have in common is that they are both hostas!"

J.R.R. Tolkien reference: The Lord of the Rings - Celeborn is the Elven husband of Galadriel.
