Hosta Fair Maiden Hummingbird Plants powder-blue foliage radiates out fromThis is one of the best of the recent hosta introductions and one that seems to be finding its way into most home gardens. This sport of H. 'Candy Hearts' via H. 'Amber Maiden' makes an 18" wide clump of grey green, heart shaped leaves, each surrounded by a dramatic white margin. These clumps, great for a border in a small garden, are topped with light lavender flowers in early summer.
