Hosta Blue Angel
A big, Sieboldiana-type hosta or plantain lily, Hosta Blue Angel is a clump-forming, herbaceous perennial, beautiful in a moist, partially-shaded site. A clump of magnificent, heavily-textured, puckered, blue-grey leaves, 40cm long with wavy edges, gives interest from spring to autumn, and eventually forms a large mound. In summer, spires of palest lavender, bell-shaped flowers rise above the clump. Hostas are notoriously attractive to slugs, but blue-leaved hostas seem to be much more resistant to them. Hosta Blue Angel holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit.
