This cultivar is a H.
'Abiqua
Drinking Gourd' × H. 'Empress
Wu' which was registered by
Gerry Hicks of Maine in 2015. The giant size hosta grows to a
height of around 32 inches with a spread of about 58
inches. As the name might imply, the foliage is an
intense blue-green color with leaves that are deeply
cupped, heavily corrugated with a glaucous bloom on top.
The leaves fade to dark green by late summer. Near white
flowers bloom from July into August and it sets viable
seeds.
