Hosta Deep Blue Sea 5a the original Trachycarpus 'Greensboro' palmThis splendid Charlie Seaver hybrid makes a compact 3' wide clump of thick, very corrugated, cupped blue foliage. In midsummer, this fast growing, heat tolerant H. 'Blue Moon' hybrid is topped with 14" scapes of closed lavender flowers.
