Mounds of extra-large, blue-green, heart shaped foliage with heavy ribbing create the perfect background for garden beds; delicate, white flowers appear on arching scapes during the mid summer; adds texture and contrast; low maintenance and easy to grow

Elegans Hosta features dainty spikes of white bell-shaped flowers rising above the foliage in mid summer. Its attractive enormous textured heart-shaped leaves emerge powder blue in spring, turning blue in color throughout the season. It is a dense herbaceous perennial with tall flower stalks held atop a low mound of foliage. Its wonderfully bold, coarse texture can be very effective in a balanced garden composition. This is a relatively low maintenance plant, and is best cleaned up in early spring before it resumes active growth for the season.
