GIGANTOSAURUS

The massive size and leaves of Gigantosaurus will have your garden feeling like Jurassic Park. Gigantosaurus is a hybrid of Empress Wu streaked x Blueberry Muffin. This hosta will come roaring to life in early spring as one of the first hostas to emerge so situate it carefully to avoid spring frosts.  Perhaps choose a more protected site where the soil stays cooler longer prolonging the emergence of plants. The thick heavily veined and corrugated leaves can be 17 inches long x 11 inches wide, and are bluish in spring with a wavy yellow margin. In summer the leaves are more green with creamy white margins. Pale lavender flowers appear just above the foliage in early summer.
