Hosta Liberty - (J. Machen, Jr. (ONIR) 2000) - grows in an upright vase-shape to 20-24” tall. Thick, wide-oval leaves (to 12” long and 10” wide) with mucronate tips and heart-shaped bases emerge in spring. New leaves are blue-green with extremely wide yellow margins (to 2 1/4” wide). As the leaves mature, the centers become greener and the margins lighten to creamy white. Foliage mound will typically spread over time to 30-36” wide. Funnel-shaped pale lavender flowers appear in early summer on scapes rising above the foliage mound to as much as 40” tall. Family: Liliaceae
