Enhance your shade garden with the striking beauty of Hosta 'Hudson Bay', a superior sport of the popular 'Eskimo Pie' hosta. This variety features wide, bright blue margins accented by apple green jetting surrounding creamy white centers, creating exceptional contrast throughout the growing season.
