Hosta "Van Wade" review
=Hosta sieboldiana 'Van Wade'. 12" tall. Light Shade. Med. sized dark green with wide creamy yellow irregular margins. Hosta 'Van Wade' is an outstanding Bob Kuk selection of a Herb Benedict cross (Hosta 'Dorothy Benedict' x Hosta 'Northern Lights'). The 17" wide clumps feature cupped and nearly round dark green, heavily corrugated leaves with a wide creamy margin. In early summer, the clumps are topped with light lavender flowers on 30" scapes. Leaves are dark green w/wide creamy-yellow margin that is slightly irregular. This is from a cross of 'Dorothy Benedict' and 'Northern Lights'. The leaves are rounded and cupped, heavily puckered, dark green with a wide white margin. Lavender flowers. Large, round green leaves with yellow-cream margins. Excellent substance on an excellent plant. Lavender flowers. Medium size, dark green leaves with creamy yellow margins, slightly cupped. Flared lavendar flowers in July and August.
