Wiggles and Squiggles, Hosta

BG2026admin — Sat, 20 Jun 2026 15:43:06 +0000

A unique looking hosta that lives up to its fun name! Bright yellow leaves are very long and thin and notable for their incredibly wavy margins. It forms a low, wide habit that really highlights the “wiggly” edges. Leaves will be more chartreuse green in more shade: for best yellow color, plant in a site with morning sun and afternoon shade.

Tears in Heaven, Hosta

BG2026admin — Sat, 20 Jun 2026 15:43:00 +0000

A beautifully cascading blue hosta whose movement is reminiscent of waterfall. ‘Tears in Heaven’ has an upright habit that’s unique from other blue hosta. Ruffled, wedge-shaped leaves have an intense blue color that remains late into the season. Pale lavender flowers with darker lavender pattern on center of petals.

Pocketful of Sunshine, Hosta

BG2026admin — Sat, 20 Jun 2026 15:42:37 +0000

This cute small hosta grows quickly to form a compact clump of thick, rugose, distinctly cupped leaves that are yellow with broad, deep green margins at maturity. The centers of the leaves are chartreuse in spring and brighten as the season progresses. Light lavender flowers are produced in early to midsummer.

Curly Fries, Hosta

BG2026admin — Sat, 20 Jun 2026 15:42:36 +0000

(‘Pineapple Upsidedown Cake’ seedling)Just look at the photo. I will add that the agave-looking leaves are stiff as a board and you can see that award winning ‘Curly Fries’ is the most unique hosta to be introduced in some time. Best grown in half a day of sun, its highly ruffled narrow leaves emerge yellow and then fade to near white. The scape is deep purple, topped with lavender flowers. It makes a great container plant or grows very well in the garden. You just have to touch it.

Royal Wedding, Hosta

BG2026admin — Sat, 20 Jun 2026 15:42:05 +0000

This prestigious wide-margined sport of ‘Diana Remembered’ will delight you with its sweetly perfumed, large 3-4in , pure white flowers in mid to late summer. Be sure to plant it near a patio or pathway where its fragrance can be enjoyed up close. This is a medium sized hosta that grows quickly to form an upright mound of thick, shiny green leaves with very wide, creamy white margins which brighten to pure white.

Smokey Mountains, Hosta

BG2026admin — Sat, 20 Jun 2026 15:42:05 +0000

Leaf Detail: Blue 5in long by 4in wide; blue-green; good substance. Flowering: lavender flowers in August on two-foot scapes. Comments: odd and unusual for its “bumpyin corrugation, deep cupping, and rich blue-green foliage color; something different from the breeding program of Doug and Mardy Beilstein (a hybrid of ‘King of Spades’).

Rainbow’s End, Hosta

BG2026admin — Sat, 20 Jun 2026 15:42:04 +0000

This unique hosta exhibits incredibly variegated, shiny foliage. The bright yellow leaves of good substance have dark green margins that jet into the center, and the center brightens to creamy white in summer. It forms a medium sized mound of attractive foliage in the landscape. In late summer, showy red scapes carry the dark lavender, tubular flowers. Breeder: Hans Hansen Parentage: Sport of ‘Obsession’.

Raspberry Sundae, Hosta

BG2026admin — Sat, 20 Jun 2026 15:42:04 +0000

Lovely compact Hosta with beautifully variegated leaves and striking deep burgundy petioles, leaf bases, and flower stalks. Terra Nova® worked on this one for many years perfecting the combination of variegation and introducing the red pigmentation to the foliage.

Justine, Hosta

BG2026admin — Sat, 20 Jun 2026 15:41:59 +0000

Leaf Detail: 6in long by 4 ½in wide (est.); bright gold in the center with a narrow, dark green margin; very thick substance. Flowering: pale lavender flowers from late July into early August. Comments: tetraploid sport of ‘June Fever’ from Jan van den Top of the Netherlands; thick, gold-centered foliage.

Island Breeze, Hosta

BG2026admin — Sat, 20 Jun 2026 15:41:59 +0000

First came ‘Fire Island’ which was followed by its variegated progeny ‘Paradise Island’. This year, we are excited to introduce ‘Island Breeze’ which is the third member of this “tropicalin family and a sport of ‘Paradise Island’. The improvements in this cultivar include more impressive variegation due to its wider margins, thicker leaf substance, and a strong growth rate. Wide, dark green margins stand in sharp contrast to the bright yellow centers in early spring. As summer approaches, the centers become more chartreuse when plants are grown in heavier shade or lighter yellow if they are grown in more sun. Like ‘Paradise Island’, this one also has showy red speckled petioles that bleed up into the leaves. Dark lavender flowers appear on reddish green scapes in midsummer.
