Just to get away from Gold Standard sports for a quick minute, here is Majestic. It put up a scape that was 5 feet tall.

A couple of photos of Majectic's flowers today. The scape may end up being over 6 feet tall. It gets bigger than my Krossa Regal scape and has much larger flowers. Anyone know why the scape is so tall on this plant.

Re: Daily Hosta #5 - Majestic
Some more recent photos of Majestic. I have one in the ground and one in a pot.
Here is the one in the ground early last season. Here is the same plant this season. That's Miss Linda Smith above/right, and Crystal Moon above/left with some Azalea Autumn Chiffon flower mixed in. And here is the potted one today. I want back into my old photos to find a nice shot later in a season to show the size this can get but I couldn't find what I was looking for. This is the best I could find and it's from 2013. (I have probably shown this before on another topic.)

This plant looks great until the full sun hits it - then the leaves get limp. But next morning it's back looking great.
With some of the other plants around it.

An update - six weeks later. The yellow edge is gone and a lot of variability in the leaf is showing up.
The green leaf on the right is from Miss Linda Smith growing nearby.
