Boy Shooting Arrows

Hosta "Boy Shooting Arrows" review

In Ellin Anderson's poem The Outlaw, Robin Hood offers "quilled arrows for my signature". With equal boldness, Frank Nyikos' Hosta 'Boy Shooting Arrows' will write its name on your hosta collector's heart. Boasting 'Mikawa-no-Yuki' as the pollen parent, its spritely blue color is sharply accented by an open growth habit, long thin leaves, and slender petioles--a good-looking hybrid that really hits the target! To encourage the best growth, place this lovely arrow in morning sun.
