black? i dont think ive ever seen that on a hosta cept for when some of them just poke their noses out of the ground, nice hybridizing work.....that must have took many generations to finally get?

Hi NW this seedling is a hybrid from my dark flowering line.
The speckling is usually indicative of a dark flower
I'll post more pics when it blooms

I really like that! Purple is my favorite color, so it really is interesting to me. What is it's name?

Thanks Charla
this is an un-named seedling from this year. If it turns out nice I'll let you name it
NWhosta, thanks for your interest,
Thanks WZB
