This is "possibly" a seedling of
H. gracillima x H. venusta which was registered by
Briggs Nursery of Washington in 1987. It is a small size hosta about 7 inches high
with a spread of around 16 inches. The leaves are dark
green, heavily rippled and very narrowly elliptic in
shape. Its medium purple flowers bloom in August.
According to
The Hostapedia
by Mark Zilis (2009), "It becomes a very dense mound of heavily rippled, dark
green foliage that could be useful as a low edger or in
troughs."
"Plant
is a selected form of H. gracillima, usually not
growing to the size specified in the registration
documents." |
