Hosta 'Krinkle Twist'
 

 

A medium to large size hosta, this cultivar is a tissue culture sport of an F1 seedling of  H. 'Dorothy Benedict' which was registered by Dr. Ed Elslager of Michigan in 2005. It has blue-green foliage with a gold colored marginal variegation and have thick substance. Pale lavender flowers bloom in July on scapes about 31 inches tall.

According to The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "...slug-resistant cultivar shows no evidence of spring desiccation burn and would make a good substitute for H. 'Frances Williams' in the landscape. It is the chimeral reversal of 'Krinkle Sister'..."
