Hosta 'Silly String'
Hosta ‘Silly String’ is a striking and cheerful variety known for its long, narrow, wavy leaves that arch gracefully to create a lively, textured effect. Emerging in spring with a soft blue hue, the foliage gradually matures to a refined blue-green, adding seasonal interest and elegance.
