  This
Tardiana-type  seedling was registered by the 
British Hosta and 
				Hemerocallis Society on behalf of the originator, 
				Eric Smith in 1988. The 
large size hosta grows to about 22 
				inches high with a width of around 49 inches. Its 
				blue-green foliage is slightly wavy, slightly corrugated and has 
				thick substance. Pale lavender flowers bloom in July followed by 
viable seeds. According to
				
							The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "...ranks as one of the biggest of the Tardianas and is 
				known for its very bright blue foliage."   
				
				The New Encyclopedia of Hostas by
				Diana 
				Grenfell (2009) states: "Leaf color is much bluer in cooler climates. 
Moderate growth rate."
