Blue Blazes

Hosta "Blue Blazes" review

Named because of its fast growth. Blue/green roundish heart shaped leaves. Near white flowers in June. Blue-green leaves with heavy corrugation and good substance; near-white flowers. A hybrid of Kevin Vaughn. Nicely rounded and crinkled large blue leaves with good growth rate, siebold-iana sized. Better growth rate than s. 'Elegans'. Lavender flowers with 38" scapes. Very cupped, very blue leaves on this very nice plant, topped with very lavender flowers.
