Bette Comfry

Hosta "Bette Comfry" review

It's this big robust green that he has named for Bette Comfrey, formerly the owner of Silvermist Nursery and a great collector of hostas in her day. Her Japanese collection is on display in Van Wade's spectacular Ohio garden. A dear friend and mentor Bette Comfrey of Silvermist, located in Pennsylvania, was so kind and free with her help and inspiration that I named a seedling she gave me after her. It grew out of seed Bette got from Japan from Toyozo.
