Hosta 'Valley's Big Freeze'
 

This seedling of H. 'Empress Wu' was registered by Jeroen Linneman of the Netherlands in 2015. It is out of seeds that came from Virginia and Brian Skaggs of Indiana in 2005. This fast growing, giant size hosta reaches about 55 inches in height with a spread of around 75 inches.

The intensely blue-green foliage is broadly ovate, slightly folded, slightly wavy, very flat and has a glaucous bloom on top. Pale lavender, tubular flowers bloom from June into August and it sets viable seeds.

According to the registration material, "...blue stays long into the growing season."
