"The Hosta Whirlwind, 'Hosta', has upright pointed leaves that are twisted and folded. The creamy yellow to white centers and dark green margins give æWhirlwindÆ its name. The lavender flowers bloom from July to August, however, HostaÆs are not known for their flowers. With a plant height of 24ö and a spread of 36ö, HostaÆs provide bright color in shade with wonderful foliage. This low care perennial is ideal for shady positions, tubs and patio pots, and is one of the most popular landscape plants. A great choice for any beginner gardener."
