Currently we are not set up with pictures for each hosta. We hope to add that soon. By going to HostaLibrary.org you
can find pictures for nearly all of these. They often show both young and mature plants in various sunlight conditions.

These will usually pot up in 3" or 4" pots.

(Large) Minks 72
A sport of 'Frances Williams' with wider gold margins and presumably identical in all other respects. White flowers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(6"H x 12"W) Japan/Grenfell NR
Formally listed as venusta ‘Variegated’. Small white leaves with green edge, occasionally turning completely
green in summer. One of the smallest of the mediovariegated hostas. Purple flowers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(10"H x 18"W) W. Vaughn 91.
Considered by many to be one of, if not the best of the small gold hostas. Leaves
are bright gold, rounded and cupped, held upright and nicely puckered.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(12"H x 24"W) Machen 94
Sport of 'Patriot', center of leaf is significantly darker. Maintains color in heat and
partial sun. Lavender flowers
|
|
|
|
|
|
(Large) Japanese native
Green leaves with wide, irregular yellow margins. Early to emerge in the
spring. A mature clump is one of the most elegant, impressive plants you can grow in the shade garden. Needs some sun for
the best color.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(Large) K. Vaughn NR
Large blue green leaves
with whitish backs. Very unusual two tone effect that is interesting when the wind blows and turns the leaves. Leaves look
like lily-pads, a shape that creates even more interest.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(18"H x 30"W) Machen 94
This is a sport of 'White Christmas' with long, deep green leaves with
a white streak down the center. Much more vigorous than 'White Christmas' forming a medium to large mound with lavender flowers.
The center fades to light green in mid summer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(Large) Japanese native
A dark, powdery blue hosta with a very thin white edge. A great blue hosta that will easily
form clumps. Upright, vase-shaped plants with leathery leaves, slightly cupped. Pale lavender flowers in mid-summer. A mature
clump can have flowers up to 5-7' tall and is truly magnificent.

A sport of ‘Francee’ that is probably a tetraploid. A
fairly narrow white center and dark green edges. The white is speckled with green
flecks. More vigorous than ‘Revolution.'

(15"H x 48"W) Soldberg/Ellis 99
Long, wavy lance-shaped leaves emerge pure green and quickly brighten to bright
yellow with a dark green margin. Blooms are lavender and appear in late summer on 28" scapes.
|
|
|
|

|
(20"H x 24"W) Chinese Native
Known as the August Lily, this species has large, shiny light green leaves. Its flowers
are the largest of all the hostas and are very fragrant. White flowers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Similar to above. Huge displays of hosta's largest and most beautiful, white, fragrant flowers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(Small/Medium)
Very pretty tri-color hosta with a green leaf surrounded by a yellow ribbon and a white edge outside
that. Light streaking throughout the leaves. Dark lavender flowers streaked white in mid to late summer. Vigorous and fast
to multiply.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(14"H x 18"W) Williams 96
The strangest hosta available, and everyone wants it! Long narrow, waxy
leaves are held upright with a thin yellow edge. The leaves
twist and turn and almost look folded.
|
|
|
|
|
|
A stunningly beautiful variegated hosta. Each leaf is a differing combination of green, gold and cream. Leaves are heavily
veined with some puckering.
|
|
|
|
|

(Small) Winterberry Farms NR
A sport of 'Maui Buttercups', which is one of the best small to medium gold hostas
there is. This has bright gold leaves, cupped and puckered, with a dark green margin. Medium violet flowers. This sport is
supposedly much more vigorous than the parent, but I find it to still be a slow grower.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(18"H x 24"W) Walters Garden 00
A sport of ‘Loyalist.’ Dark green leaves with creamy
white centers. The center of the leaves are speckled with light green in the spring, turning darker in the summer. Possibly a tetraploid, with heavier substance that holds up better through the summer than most of the
white centered cultivars. Lavender flowers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(24"H x 48"W) Wayside Gardens/AHS 86
A plantaginea hybrid with glossy medium green leaves. Dozens of white fragrant
flowers top these wonderful plants in late summer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(8"H x 17"W) T&Z/Zilis 87
Forms clumps of twisted and crimped leaves of medium green with a thin white streak down the center. Lavender flowers
