Hosta Alliteration (OS)

Hosta Alliteration (OS)

C$102.00Price

In this hosta's name, 'ALLITERATION' bears a literary name meaning the “repetition of consonant sounds”. In the case of this hosta, however, it has nothing to do with sounds, but much to do with the unique expression of its double parent, "Cynthia". This hosta is unique among its peers with wild splashing, mottling, streaking. The cross of "Cynthia" to "Invocation" produced an even wilder child in "Alliteration". Every leaf is a different expression of splashed/mottled/streaked/hazed/ checkerboard/ghostly pale. And whereas "Cynthia" will sometimes revert to straight green (still a nice hosta), its child has been entirely stable for years. The expression becomes more muted as summer passes, but is still apparent. Growth rate is strong and leaf substance is heavy, with a pebbled surface at maturity.

We are offering OS (Originator Stock) divisions.
