Hosta 'Silver Twist'

[Mini]  Years ago, Barry Yinger of Asiatica nursery introduced this Japanese hybrid to the US, but only now is it becoming more widely available.  'Silver Twist' is the result of crossing a seedling of sieboldii x venusta with the wildly twisted 'Tortifrons'.  The long, narrow leaves are not twisted, but the leaf margins are a bit rippled in places.  Hosta 'Silver Twist' forms a silvery-blue clump about 6-8" tall and 12-15" across that blooms will spider-like, light lavender flowers.
