hosta?


I don't think that is a hosta? It almost looks like a plant I got in a trade, but that had pink, and was called chamelion plant. You have to wait for ZuZu for a real answer. I just do guesses.

No I'm not blind but when I first opened the thread there was no picture there, just a box with a little red X in it. I do see the picture now!
