Registered by Steve Chamberlain of New York in 2003,
this cultivar is a seedling of an
F1
seedling of H. 'Ginko Craig'.
A medium size hosta, it grows to about 17 inches in
height with a spread of around 40 inches. The medium
green colored foliage is moderately flat, broadly ovate
and has medium green petioles. Medium lavender flowers
with stripes bloom from mid-July into August on brownish
purple scapes up to 31 inches tall. Later it bears
nearly black seed pods.
The
Nazgûl, also called Ringwraiths, Ring-wraiths, Black Riders,
Dark Riders, the Nine Riders, or simply the Nine, are characters
in J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth legendarium.
