Hosta 'Lady in Red'

[M] If you've been hit by the red craze, you will want to check out this little known, but impressive hosta. Wavy green leaves are powdery white below and held on red petioles. The impressive part is how far the red travels into the veins radiating from the base of the leaf. Hosta 'Lady in Red' takes her time to form a mature clump about 12" tall, but if you like red, you will find her well worth waiting for.
