Hosta 'Mighty Mouse is a small but mighty sport of 'Blue Mouse Ears' with lavender flowers and variegated green and yellow foliage.
Description:
'Mighty Mouse' is a small but mighty Hosta. It is a variegated sport of the award winning 'Blue Mouse Ears'. In spring, the rounded leaves are blue-green with a creamy yellow margin. By summer, the leaves transition to grey-green with a creamy white margin. Lavender flowers on perfectly proportioned scapes appear in early summer. Miniature hostas are great in shady containers or troughs, at the front of the border or along pathways. Dangerous for collectors who will want to have many more than just one!
