Dark and Fragrant
This is a cross between a large fragrant flowering hybrid with dark two tone petals on a hot gold plant x 'Fuchsia Dream', I have been working on getting more red in fragrant flowers. These leaves are very unusual for me. I am hopeful its a sign of something different, Taken today,

That's darker than any of Mary Chastain's, I think. Looks great!

Well, viktoria, I did spell it that way cuz I thought it was a word!! But I couldn't find it spelled that way in my dictionary, (???) so I thought it was something I had just made up! I had looked it up in the dictionary to be sure I had the correct spelling to tell Leafy, but didn't find it...? This dictionary is about 20 years old so maybe it's a newer word???? I'm really curious now!!!! Hmmmm!!!!

What a great leaf . I'm a sucker for a lance shaped leaf, and I love the shiny dark forest green. That is unique. I think I prefer it without a contrasting edge. Less is more sometimes.
Thanks for the hosta shot in the arm.
