Hosta "King Michael" review
'Krossa B-2'. Imported from Japan in the 1960s, by Gus Krossa. A medium green hosta with heart shaped leaves 18" long x 12" wide. A very large plant. White flowers on 48" scapes. Stately blue. Bearing a strong resemblance to Hosta montana macrophylla, it has deeply impressed veins and the same graceful, elegant habit. White flowers.
