Initial Notes:

Ordered this plant from the Winterberry co-op that Cheryl IL coordinated in August 2002. I paid $1.84 for it.

Hosta 'Hadspen Blue' (E. Smith, P. Ruh 76) (TF 2x7))
Part Sun to Light ShadeZone: 3-9 15" tall Origin: Hybrid
This has long been touted as one of the best of England's Eric Smith hybrids. The 2' wide clumps feature thick, corrugated, round, very powder blue leaves that hold their color longer than most other blue hostas. Each clump is topped with lavender flowers on 15" scapes in early summer.

Received this hosta today and planted it in the hosta bed by the veggie garden. Pretty little, but hopefully it will settle in and grow.
