Hosta "Royal Empress" review
Probably the largest variegated hosta currently in existence. Reaches the same size (or larger) than 'Empress Wu'. Good grower. Marginally-variegated sport of 'Empress Wu' that withstands full sun. Chartreuse margins stay same color all season. Same growth rate and mammoth size as 'Empress Wu.'
