Hosta Hazel

Hazel Hosta

Hosta ‘Hazel’ — a medium perennial hosta with a rounded, mounded form, valued for its smooth blue-green foliage and dependable garden performance in shade. The broad, heart-shaped leaves have gentle substance, soft veining, and a clean symmetrical habit that forms an attractive clump through the growing season. Pale lavender flowers rise above the foliage in midsummer on upright scapes and attract hummingbirds.
