Hosta "Chesapeake Bay" review
'Chesapeake Bay' is the latest blue hosta in the "Americana Series" from Master Hybridizer Olga Petryszyn of Indiana. Large "oyster-shaped" leaves comprise a large mound of foliage, reminding the breeder of underwater plants in a current when the leaves are moved by the wind. Unusual blue grey like the great bay itself. Near white flowers top the clump in midsummer.
