Hosta "Grand Slam" review
Broad glossy leathery. Dark green. A tremendous plant, the broad, dark green leaves are glossy and very leathery with attractive undulation along the margin. Purple dotting on the petioles and scapes. A select form of Hosta longpipes var. latifolia. Dense flower heads of dark violet. This is a fantastic hosta. Very dark, leathery leaves with pronounced marginal undulations. It is the latest flowering hosta we grow....blooms appear in September.
