Hosta of the Day - Frozen Margarita

Post by redcrx »

Frozen Margarita is in the Fragrant Bouquet family. It is a sport of Fried Bananas which is a sport of Guacamole which is a sport of Fragrant Bouquet. It has apple green leaves with a white margin where the white sometimes streaks into the center.

This is one of my favorites. I have two and both were damaged by deer this season.
