Hosta "Bengee" review
A very cupped and dimpled medium sized gold leaf. An excellent specimen. The crinkled and cupped leaves have an unusual greenish gold coloring. Slow growing. White flowers. Leaves are golden, light green to yellow in late summer. Becomes cupped & puckered when older. Emerges golden changing to light green with the season, some cupping and puckering.
