Hosta Blue Angel
Bye-bye, snails and slugs!
Each leaf on this beautiful blue-toned plant is heavily puckered and cupped, adding lots of texture to the shade. And the foliage is HUGE -- the average leaf is a foot wide and up to 16 inches long! And expect midsummer flowers of white, a bit showier than most Hosta blooms but still nothing to dance a jig about. The main features of Blue Angel are the color -- a rich, hard-to-find aqua-blue -- and the remarkably thick texture of the foliage, which makes it much harder for slugs and snails to nibble!
The artistic beauty and richness of Hosta foliage, unequaled in any other shade-loving plant, is being recognized more widely every year. The bold, colorful, and often fragrant flowers are excellent for cutting, as are the leaves. Hostas are a must for any shady planting, and are magnificent in combination with ferns or with other Hostas creating a marvelous play of textures, colors, and shapes. Zones 3-9.
