Hosta of the Day - Sparkling Burgundy

Post by redcrx »

'Sparkling Burgundy' is a small green hosta with some burgundy coloration on the petioles.

I got one in a Hallson's secret swap back when we all did those. Clean, thankfully. It does have pretty blooms, although "burgundy" is quite a stretch.
