Academy Flaxen Spades

Hosta "Academy Flaxen Spades" review

Spade-shaped leaves. A large chartreuse 'Vanilla Cream'. New for 2005. An open pollinated seedling of Hosta 'Vanilla Cream' and a really nice gold that is very much like a medium-sized version of the parent. The greenish-yellow leaf is spade shaped and rather flat and grows into a nice mound topped with pale lavender flowers in July.....(limited)
