This is a real "oldie but goodie". A real show stopper in my garden, that I love. Give it time to mature and enough moisture and light and it does very well.
This is a quote from Hallson's listed under Hosta 'Geisha'
Comments: This is a fast growing plant with very attractive and distinctive coloring and a nice flower display. The Japanese name is Hosta. 'Ani Machi' but it was introduced in the US as H. 'Geisha'.
My picture above is NOT 'Pewterware' but rather a streaked SPORT of 'Pewterware' which was given to me by a friend. It does show the form and colour of the original plant though.
I'm assuming its characteristics are similar to 'Pewterware' and it holds up well until late August and holds the blue colour very well too.
An excellent and beautiful hosta that is vigorous, rapid-growing and never fails to scent the summer with its large and abundant pale icy lavender blooms. A treat for the eyes as well as the nose! The coloring of the foliage is subtle enough to mix well in many garden settings.
A reliable steady performer with showy, fragrant flowers. This is one of those special garden perennials that, while not flashy or exciting, always seems to be "just right."
So fragrant, so easy to grow, so attractive... Is there really a better hosta to grow than this one? Its enormous nocturnal flowers are stunning, as is the delicious perfume that wafts out into the warm, humid late summer night air. My favorite of all hostas.
H.'Remember Me' honors Sandy De Boer, a long-time Walters Gardens employee who died of breast cancer in 2000. Portions of sales are donated to the Susan Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.
In maturity this Hosta seldom looks healthy or attractive. The growth seems to stunt with only one or two leaf displaying after several years, the edges always looking ratty and unpleasant.
