Info | While walking the fields I spotted in a bed of H. 'Abba Dabba Do' this superb sport that has a much wider gold border. My first thought was Abba Dabba Wow. Same size and flower color as 'Abba Dabba Do'. Tetraploid? of H. 'Abba Dabba Do' wavy, pointed green with a very wide light yellow margined leaves. A vigorous grower' will form an impressive, upright mound about 2 feet tall and 4 feet across. Pale lavender flowers in mid summer. It is still unclear how or if this hosta differs from 'Atlantis'. |
