Pls, help me to id my 4 y.o. hosta. I checked all hostas with green leaves in HostaRegistrar.org and in hostalibrary, but i didn't found it. It 4 y.o., Plant Width- 150sm (59in), Leaf Color Center- (59in), Leaf Color- medium (may be almost dark)green , without Margin, Leaf Length 25 sm(9,84in), Leaf Width 18sm(7 in). But we live in cold place and i think, that my hosta in warm regions and 7 y.o. has other (bigger) sizes. So my Krossa Regal 5 y.o. is considerably less than in HostaRegistrar.org
Flower Color- is lavender. Bloom Period- middle of July (such as Krossa Regal' and Eleganse')

| Looks like Honeybells,to me,but that's just a guess. |

| I'd say Hyacynthina or a Fortunei type. |

Thank you very much for answers. I did n't think that my hosta on the previuos foto is Honeybells. Honeybells is appple green color and its Growth Rate is less Right hosta in foto is Honeybells 5 y.o.:
I think that left hosta (also 5 y.o.)is Hyacynthina. Its Growth Rate such as Honeybells'. But may be Mctavish6 is right, Hyacynthina is in upper foto. Thank you for your help! |

| And may be and not Hyacynthina. In accordance with russian information about Hyacynthina, its Plant Width is 100cm only (40 in) |

| I think they're both Hyacinthina. This variety is well known for a wide range of variation. Neither of them is Honeybells, which has a smooth, softly rippled leaf and fragrant flowers. |

Both- medium size with dark leaves(#1) and large size with dark leaves (#2) or second it is medium size with appple green leaves (#3)?

| Hi 'v71nat'! Welcome to the hosta forum! Is there another name we can address you by? My husband and I just met two young girls from Russia, last week, while on vacation--who have only been in the states for 4 months. They were running a gift shop in Gatlinburg, Tennesee, selling handbags! They were delightful, and a bit shy, yet!:o) I agree with the others, definitely 'Hyacinthia'! I love mine, and it can be a variety of colors, determined by sun exposures!  |

| Tkank you for your answers! Really- all hostas: and #1, and #2, and #3 - are 'Hyacinthina'? |

RE: Pils, Id my hosta
| | |
| Yes, they are. But #3 (with more lighter leaves) have more lighter color in blooming |
RE: Pils, Id my hosta

Yes, they are. But #3 (it's leaves are lighter) in blooming is lighter too. Natalia |
