Descriptions (from various sources):
12" tall. Light Shade.
2½ inch bluish green leaves come to a tapered point. Medium lavender flowers in June.
A fast growing blue edger. Forms compact small mounds.
Hosta 'Blue Cadet' forms a perfectly round medium sized clump to 15" wide of heart shaped blue leaves. This crowd favorite is equally at home in a border or as a specimen. Medium lavender flowers on 28" scapes adorn the clumps in late spring...time honored as one of the best!
Small rounded blue-green leaves w/good texture, nice edging plant; lavender flowers. 50 - 90 % shade.
The durable blue round leaves form a tight mound. Brings that great blue color to small garden spaces or containers. Very dependable. (Plant 28x16)
Small blue leaves with heavy texture. Forms a neat mound and multiplies very quickly. Lavender flowers.
The same blue-green leaf color as H. 'Blue Boy' but with some subtle differences. These flat heart shaped leaves (5"x4") have a heavy texture. Forms a nice dense clump quickly. A good edger plant. 16"x28". Blooms lavender. Shade to 1/2 sun. Growth rapid.
Nice mound of gray/green foliage. Heavy bloom on short scapes.
