Hosta Valleys Pavlova will form a medium upright mound of 15"-18"in height, with a spread of up to 24" at maturity. Leaves emerge bright yellow in spring and are held on purple petioles. The purple from the petioles does come up into the veins of the leaf. The rippled margins help to show off the white backsides of the leaf. Leaves do tend green up a little in summer. Lavender flowers appear on 30" scapes with purple legs, in mid-summer. The ruffled yellow leaves on purple petioles. Got to be a winner. This is part of our Special Collection.
