Hosta Jade Scepter
Jade Scepter Hosta
Hosta ‘Jade Scepter’ — commonly known as Jade Scepter Hosta — is a medium-sized perennial valued for its narrow, pointed deep green leaves edged with creamy-white margins that brighten shaded plantings. The slender foliage creates a graceful, slightly arching mound with a finer texture than broader-leaved hostas. Lavender flowers rise above the foliage in midsummer, adding delicate vertical interest.
