Hosta "Cutting Edge" review
Fountain of ruffled leaf margins arched and folded to reveal their white backs. A sensation a the 2000 National Convention. Picked the Hosta of the Year by Bob Solberg. Lavender flowers in August. Hosta 'Cutting Edge' drew raves from the attendees at the American Hosta Society Convention in Minnesota...even before the bar opened. This unique hybrid (Hosta 'Salute' x Hosta pycnophylla) makes a 27" wide clump of pointed glossy blue leaves with a distinctive wavy edge. The architectural clump is topped in summer with a 2'+ tall scape of lavender flowers
