Hosta Blue Angel (Hosta 'Blue Angel') – Shopify Listing

Description:
Hosta Blue Angel (Hosta 'Blue Angel') is one of the largest and most impressive blue-leaved hostas available. This striking perennial forms a massive, elegant mound of thick, heart-shaped, powdery blue-green leaves that provide bold color and texture in shady gardens. In early to midsummer, tall stems rise above the foliage, bearing clusters of pale lavender to near-white, bell-shaped flowers that attract hummingbirds. Exceptionally low maintenance and tolerant of a variety of soil conditions, Blue Angel is perfect for borders, woodland gardens, and as a dramatic specimen plant.
