Introducing a collector's hosta with real style! Looking for a new shade-loving perennial that is sure to liven up the shadowy spaces of any landscape? This new dwarf hosta features snow-white, wavy, twisted foliage edged in a fresh, bright green. The unique coloration is gorgeous as is, but it matures to streaked green and white, giving a whole new look to darkened areas of the property. In early summer, the tall, graceful scapes bear sweet lavender, tubular blooms. Kiwi Spearmint is a terrific variety for borders, containers, rock gardens and as ground cover. Butterflies will flock to the garden for this hosta! Easy to grow and maintain.
