Posted by BookerC1 (Mackinaw, IL - Zone 5a) on Jul 5, 2012 2:43 PM Very petite little hosta, with attractive bi-color leaves and twisted form. Slow to multiply. Seems to be highly attractive to insect pests, as it is chewed up when the other miniature hostas in the area are untouched. [ Reply to this comment | |
