('Sheer Bliss' X 'Blue Ox')
While we have always had very good feedback about our hosta introductions, last season's reviews on 'Glad Rags' were exceptional, for which we are most gratified.
The web site pictures give at least a partial idea of the positives of 'Glad Rags.' A well established clump will measure about 20" across and 14" tall, with a somewhat vaselike form, especially on younger plants. Leaves are semi-cupped, about 4" x 6" and crinkled with age. Substance is very heavy. Consequently, 'Glad Rags' takes a good deal of sun here without complaint. Leaves emerge chartreuse, then quickly turn color. Shade produces a chartreuse-gold border; semi-shade produces a clean, bright gold border; stronger sun ultimately transitions chartreuse to gold to ivory. The gold borders are extra wide, encasing an irregular swath of green center. The pattern is repeated on every leaf; yet no two leaves are exactly the same. Even a young plant is singular. An established clump is stunning. More expensive? Yes, but we make this guarantee: Grow it for two seasons, and if you aren't entirely pleased, just return the undivided clump to us and will refund the price of the plant plus postage.
SATISFACTION GUARANTEED ON OUR INTRODUCTIONS!
Remember the failsafe guarantee when you purchase Northern Grown introductions: Grow any of our introductions priced at $25 or more for two full seasons. If you are not fully satisfied with them at the end of that time, just return the undivided plant to us with original tag; we will gladly refund purchase price and shipping.
