Hosta 'Sandhill Crane'

[M] If you like hostas with an unusual look to them, 'Sandhill Crane' is right up your alley! This sport of a second generation Hosta longissima seedling from Japan has leaves that can reach 9" long, but just 2" across. The green leaves are edged with creamy-white and are held in a very upright position to form a distinct, fast growing mound about 18" tall and 26" across. Hosta 'Sandhill Crane' blooms with lavender flowers on tall scapes in mid to late summer. A definite standout in any garden.
