Hosta 'Kiwi Ingenuity'
 

A tissue culture sport of H. 'Blue Angel' is a non-registered cultivar from Barry Sligh in New Zealand as part of his Kiwi Series of hostas. It is a giant size (36 inches high by 70 inches wide) plant with blue-green foliage that is slightly corrugated, broadly ovate-oblong shaped and has thick substance. It often fades to dark green by the end of the season. Some of the leaves have yellow streaked variegation patterns. The near-white, funnel shape flowers bloom in dense clusters from late June into July followed by viable seeds.
