Hosta "Mojito" review
All dark green sport of 'Avocado' with thicker substance and sweet fragrant flowers; pairs well with Hosta 'Cerveza'. This tetraploid sport from the 'Guacamole' family has rounded dark green, very heavily substanced leaves that are frosted with white wax in spring and shiny in summer. The very thick scapes have very large (larger than 'Guacamole') light lavender flowers that are very fragrant. Grows a little slower than 'Fried Green tomatoes' but still very vigorous.
