Here's Blue Cadet blooming. While it may be tall in your picture, I think it fits fairly well for its size.

Congratulation to the recovery of your dug up hostas. They look great!
I had one h.'Raspberry Sorbet' eaten to the ground by a rabbit, and it has new leaves now too, they are indestructible. Bernd

And the good thing is that hosta don't interest her anymore.

Blue Cadet's leaves are pointy. BME are roundish

Yeah, I know. I have photos of Blue Mouse Ears with round leaves. It was a 3 year-old pot, so it had several eyes. I bought a Blue Cadet last summer. You can't really tell how many eyes it was.

Cleo dumped all the pots and pulled out the hosta and gave it a death shake. Then, she threw them around for a while. I had pieces of hosta that I tried to ID and pot accordingly. I could not tell the difference between the BME and the Blue Cadet pieces, so they all just went in pots.

However, every little blue hosta now has pointed leaves. I'd like to separate the Blue Cadet from the Blue Mouse Ears, but still can't exactly tell what's what.

Blue Cadet before the rampage

Have a closer look at the color of flowers on the tall and medium stalks. BME had nice short stalks, light lavender.

Or you can wait until the mouse ears look like rounded little mouse ears....

They will pull apart after when you hose off the soil...carefully.

Just wait until they get round? Makes perfect sense.

this has my Blue Cadet, 2nd year , in bloom.
The similar shaped hosta is Banyai's Dancing Girl' which also has a lavender flower, but two Happy Hearts are there with white flowers.

Hope this helps?
