<i>Hosta</i> ‘Krossa Regal’ | Krossa Regal Plantain Lily
DESCRIPTION
Hosta 'Krossa Regal' is a large, graceful perennial valued for its bold, blue-gray foliage and architectural presence. Native to Japan, Korea, and China, it features an upright, vase-shaped habit with large, elongated, heart-shaped leaves that add a cool, soothing element to the garden. The leaves are deeply veined with a slightly corrugated texture, enhancing its ornamental appeal. In summer, 'Krossa Regal' produces tall, slender stems topped with racemes of bell-shaped, lavender flowers that rise above the foliage, adding a delicate, airy quality. Thriving in partial to full shade, it is well-suited for woodland gardens, shaded borders, and containers, requiring minimal maintenance and being generally resistant to pests and diseases.
