The Hosta Earthquake forms a slightly domed mound, reaching a height of 70cm-80cm with a spread of up to 160cm at maturity. This plant features a very large mound of shiny dark green foliage with tightly rippled margins. The large green leaves have deeply impressed veins, enhancing their glossy appearance. The heart-shaped leaves, with a cordate base, resemble a funnel extending down to the petiole. The underside of the leaf may exhibit some glaucous coating. Given that its pod parent is Hosta Tokudama, it is expected to start off blue green in spring. In early summer, lavender flowers are held on scapes of up to 140cm.
