I will have to second what Ken said about the Sieboldiana Elegans Blue
Giants. Three years ago as I was just starting to collect our wonderful
plant, I purchased 3 "Elegans" from Wal-Mart. 1 turned out to be a
green plant, one in a shorter blue with purple flowers and the last one
looks like as sieboldiana Elegans. If you want to be sure of what you
are buying, you need to purchase from a responsible grower. It just
takes time to find them. If you haven't joined the American Hosta
Society and a nearby hosta group, do so today. there are lots of us
crazy hosta people out there!
P.S. I still buy some of the bargin ones at the local outlets. I
purchased 3 "blue umbrellas" last weekend from Lowes in Muncie for $5.67
each and a big un-named yellow margined green. It can be an adventure.
