Plant Type: Hostas

A Hans Hansen selected mutation of his earlier introduction, Hosta ‘Stained Glass’. This oddity has extremely thick leaves, most likely due to some excess chromosomes. The result is corrugated leaf patches, giving it a unique three-dimensional texture. The glossy, green, broad leaves and wide golden edge are still the same, along with the insanely fragrant light lavender flowers in mid-summer. Hosta ‘Etched Glass’ forms a 15″ tall x 32″ wide clump that is sure to be an attention-getter in the garden.
