Re: Oh My Heart hosta

Mike
 I have had blooms on the plant every year now for eleven year.  They are all crested, although the width of the crest varies.  The :"test" plants placed in gardens around the US have also all bloomed with every bloom on a crested scape.  The scapes are short, and do not show, so the flowers start at the foliage and form a upright mound. 
Thanks

Ran,
    Is the "cresting" of the flower stem stable? (show up every year?). The
picture on the hosta library looks to have two crested flower stems and two
regular flower stems. I have a gloriosa lily that grows a stem like that
some years and some years it doesn't. Does the growth on the crown of the
plant ever start to crest?  I'm just curious.
(I have collected a few crested succulent plants). They are very
interesting.
Your plant is beautiful.
Thanks,
