Info | 'Gold Standard' sport with a much wider edge. Named after my mentor, friend and father, Adrian Van Hoorn. Wide, bluish-green margins enclose a narrow, gold splash through the center of the leaves on this 'Gold Standard' sport. Hosta 'Adrian's Glory' has been under evaluation for 15 years and is similar to 'Captain Kirk', but the margin is wider and more blue. Pale lavender flowers over a 3-4 foot wide mound. Lg.; wide, heart-shaped leaves with a bold bluish green margin that surrounds a narrow gold center. Slug resistant, thick substanced leaf. |
