This hosta is a striking variety known as Hosta 'Krossa Regal', celebrated for its elegant blue-toned foliage and tidy, symmetrical growth.

🌿 Foliage Description:

• Color: Intense blue-gray to powdery blue-green, thanks to a waxy coating called “glaucous bloom” that enhances its cool-toned appearance.

• Shape: Elongated, heart-shaped to spear-shaped leaves with a slightly cupped and corrugated texture.

• Texture: Smooth and firm, resistant to pests like slugs due to the thick leaf substance.

• Size: Leaves typically reach 6–8 inches long and the plant grows about 16 inches tall and 30 inches wide in a neat mound.

🌸 Flowering Details:

• Bloom Time: Mid to late summer.

• Flowers: Bell-shaped, lavender-blue blooms held above the foliage on tall scapes (around 22 inches tall).

• Attracts: Pollinators like bees and hummingbirds.

🌱 Growth Habit and Landscaping Use:

• Light Requirements: Prefers partial to full shade. Too much sun may fade the blue color to green.

• Soil: Thrives in rich, well-drained soil with consistent moisture.

• Growth Habit: Dense, clump-forming perennial ideal for border edging, shady garden beds, or understory planting.

• Companions: Pairs beautifully with ferns, astilbe, bleeding hearts, and heuchera for a lush woodland look.
