Info | This is the tetraploid form of H. 'Exotic Treasure'. Jan had a lab in the Netherlands intentionally induce full tetraploidy with a chemical. All genetic layers are tetraploid, so hybridizing with this hosta can produce tetraploid seedlings. Leaves are thicker than 'Exotic Treasure' and the plant is smaller, 10-12 inches tall depending on how much green is in leaves. |
