There are now several hundred different hostas, but 'Krossa Regal' is always immediately recognizable because its wavy, gray-blue leaves are held in large, 2-ft., distinctly vase-shaped clumps. Lilac-blue flowers rise another 2ft. above the foliage in late summer. An imposing, tropical-looking variety deserving a special spot. No shade garden is complete without the bold, distinctive foliage and elegant floral spikes of hostas. These treasures come in silvery blue, yellow-green, rich green, and all shades in between, as well as every manner of variegation and all sizes from giant wonders to diminutive pearls.
