Daily Hosta - Gosan Leather Strap

Post by redcrx »

Gosan Leather Strap is a hybrid - yingeri x (laevigata x longipes f. sparsa).

I have had it in my garden for 2 seasons and it flowered this year.

With its heritage of yingeri and laevigata I would think the flower would be more "spider-like". Maybe the pollen parent has more impact on the flower shape.
