Shining Image

Hosta "Shining Image" review

Bright green leaves show heavy veining; white flowers. The heavily veined leaves form a mound of huge proportion. White flowers. I have been urged by those seeing mature clumps in Oregon to revise my description of this cultivar. Chet Tompkins, my longtime friend, a connoisseur of descriptions and an honest person, compares its inimitable outspread form of huge, glistening, heavily veined bright green leaves to a 'flower in form'-and he is, of course, right! Each leaf "petal" is precisely placed for display!
