'FOXFIRE PALM SUNDAY'
'Foxfire Palm Sunday' PPAF
'Foxfire Palm Sunday' is a truly unique hosta! It originated from a seedling of an open pollination cross between pod parent H. 'Independence Day' (not patented) and an unknown pollen parent. 'Foxfire Palm Sunday' has unique foliage - a palm leaf variegation pattern within the leaf. It has vigorous growth characteristics and an intense 'rubbery' leaf texture. Immature leaves on juvenile plants have a 'crumpled' look. The rubbery leaf, as well as the multi lobular pattern of the centre, is very distinctive. It is a powerful plant that has unmistakable 'presence' in the garden. Stunning! The price on this $50.
New for 2012 is Foxfire Good Friday - just like its parent, instead having chartreuse leaves with a fine green stem extending into the leaf. The stock is a good size. Again, a very striking and amazing plant. This one is $30. The photo is of an immature hosta. The leaves will widen.
'Foxfire Good Friday'
Also available is Foxfire Night Skye. It is a VERY dark sport of 'Edge of Night' with wide cream to white margins-the contrast being striking in a large hosta. Similar in intensity to 'Karin' and 'Patriot' but larger and very robust. It is easily identified across the garden. The price on this will be $25. Grows very fast.
