Post by redcrx »

The small hosta longissima 'Akikaze' is a white edged sport of longissima.

This is one of the oldest hosta in my garden dating back to 2010 or earlier. I just located it this season when I was cleaning out the debris under some bushes. Didn't realize I still had it. The bushes covering it are thinning out so it should get more light.
