Info | A welcoming sight in a special place in the garden, this light blue "Longiana" has classic heart-shaped leaves with strong venation and most resembles a "Tardiana". It has light lavender flowers in July. "Longianas"... these are crosses using 'One Man's Treasure' and sieboldiana parentage to achieve a superior strain of garden worthy hostas with good substance and nice form. H. 'Spring Shower' is a medium-sized blue with heart-shaped leaves that are light in color and have great substance. Pale lavender flowers will appear in July well above the dense clump. |
