Hosta 'Applause' (H. Hansen 06)

Part Sun to Light ShadeZone: 3-8, at least 28" tall Origin: Hybrid

This amazing sport of Hosta 'Edge of Night' is a clump I couldn't take my eyes off of in the garden of Minnesota's Hans Hansen. The heavily-cupped and corrugated dark green leaves with a wide creamy white border are turned upwards instead of lying horizontally, forming a 28" tall x 55" wide clump that resembles hands clapping; hence, the name. A mature clump of Hosta 'Applause' ranks right up with H. 'Praying Hands' in the unusual category. Pot size: 2 qt. (1.892 L)
