This one came to me with the garden name "Aunt Maxine's" from a friend on this forum, who was amused to see that years later I am still listing it under that name. Can anyone identify this hosta? It has very nice blue coloring. Thanks!

John, that really doesn't look very blue.

I thought it was Hyacinthina too.
For years, I didn't know what mine was. The place I ordered it from called it Blue Hosta.

This looks surprisingly like MY MYSTERY HOSTA! I would categorize mine as a bluish color as well although it is definitely a blue-green.

John, how old is the particular division you posted the picture of? It sure reminds me of an immature Hyacinthina division, and as you know, 'H' shows a very different colouration in shade versus part or full sun. What sort of light is it in? And it is amazing how the mature plantings of 'H' I have all show a surprising amount of cupping and since most of them are in the shade they sometimes have a colour that's almost black!
