Hosta 'Spinach Soufflé'

Bob Solberg of Green Hill Farm in North Carolina registered this cultivar in 2006 as a tissue culture sport of H. 'Garden Treasure'. It forms a large size (24 inches high) plant with broadly ovate shaped, heavily corrugated, moderately cupped foliage with thick substance. Very pale lavender, funnel shaped flowers bloom in late-June to July on tall scapes.

The New Encyclopedia of Hostas by Diana Grenfell (2009) states: "Slow to increase, but will probably exceed its registered dimensions over time. Smaller than its parent...Leaves very colorful and shapely, evincing H. 'Elegans' heritage."
