Hosta ‘Guardian Angel’

Hosta 'Guardian Angel' emerges blue with ivory centres eventually fading to misty tones before turning to all blue in summer.

Hosta ‘Guardian Angel’ is a perfect variegated cultivar that won’t overpower your shade garden. This large-growing, slug-resistant plant has rounded, ruffled leaves emerging blue-green with ivory centres then slowly turning to blue-green in summer. In the interim the foliage is misted with shades of blue, cream, and pale bluish-green. The ivory white centres hold longer in cooler climates. Lavender flowers.
