Need ID

10 years ago

Trying to id some of the unknowns in my garden. I've trying googling blue hostas but so many look alike.This is an old one I've had for years and divided several times but I don't even remember where it came from.
I don't think it's Blue Angel because I have one and this one doesn't look the same. It's probably a little more powder blue than what the picture shows.

It's probably Elegans. When was the last time you divided it?

I think at least 3 or 4 years. It might even have been divided twice because I have several here and there. I started collecting a few years ago and now I think I need to know all their names!

Well, if you can manage to let that blue remain undivided, you'll see just how large it can get. If it is Elegans, it will become a huge hosta.

If it remains fairly short, and also keeps the white blooms that Elegans has, it could be one of the blue fragrant hosta, such as Fragrant Blue. Cannot sniff out a fragrance on FBlue, but it is from the plantaginea family, and theoretically is entitled to a scent.

It looks like my newly acquired large Elegans. I'll see if I can get photos tomorrow.
