Hosta Blue Ivory

Hosta ‘Blue Ivory’ — Bold Blue Center with Bright White Margins

Hosta ‘Blue Ivory’ is a striking sport of the beloved ‘Halcyon’, offering a dramatic blue-green center framed by a wide creamy-white to pure white margin. In spring, the contrast is crisp and bold; by midsummer, the center deepens to rich blue-green while the margins brighten even more. During late-season heat, some leaves may show a soft green blush along the edges, giving the plant a subtle, natural gradient.

This medium-sized Tardiana-type hosta features thick, durable leaves with excellent substance. Clumps reach about 16" tall and 30" wide, producing lavender flowers in July–August on 20" scapes. A standout showpiece for part shade, bringing clean color contrast and premium texture to any garden.
