Hosta "Blue Veil" review

A nice blue with heavy substance and texture; lavender flowers. The stable form of Hosta 'Vicki Aden', blue green leaf with lavender flower. This hard to find Paul Aden introduction is a sport of his H 'Vickie Aden'. The wide pointed leaves with deeply impressed veins form a nice upright arching clump to 2' wide. In early summer the clumps are topped with spikes of lavender flowers.
