Overview
Expansive ‘Krossa Regal’ Hosta features deeply veined, frosty blue-green leaves on upright stems. The vase-like arching foliage rises to 3-4 feet tall, commanding attention and adding elegance to shade gardens. The large size makes this a good background for colorful low-growing shade plants. Pale purple flowers bloom atop 4-to-6-foot tall scapes in mid-to-late summer, attracting songbirds and hummingbirds. This spectacular Hosta is a recipient of the Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit. (Hosta x ‘Regal Hosta’)
