Hosta Sharp Dressed Man Aralia The green and silver-mottled round

The green and silver-mottled round leaves make a nice foil for the flowers that range in color from deep pink to white

but high rainfall cliffs in western NC and SC are home to Shortia galacifolia

deer-resistant bush smothered all summer in terminal spikes of blue-violet flowers (RHS 89D)

fleshy green leaves are topped in June with 18" spikes of white spider-like flowers

Hosta Sharp Dressed Man Aralia The green and silver-mottled roundHosta 'Sharp Dressed Man' is a Bob Solberg hybrid that started its life as a seedling from the legendary Hosta 'Francee'. The result is an outstanding 15" tall x 3' wide clump of dark green leaves highlighted by a dramatic creamy white center and an uneven chartreuse band between the green and white. We think you'll really like this hosta, but keep it out of deep shade.
