Hosta Entranced OS

Hosta ‘Entranced’ is a highly collectible not registered streaked hosta introduced by Dan Wols, originating from open-pollinated seed sourced through Doug Bielstein’s Fall Hosta Works. This offering is OS (Originator’s Stock), meaning plants are sourced directly from the originator’s original stock and designated as OS only when verifiable.

The foliage is green with bold yellow streaking that remains heavy and expressive throughout the season, creating a bright focal point in the shade garden. True to its breeding background—(‘Galaxy’ × Hosta kikutii ‘Finlandia’) × OP—this cultivar combines strong ornamental appeal with reliable performance. Plants form a well-proportioned clump reaching approximately 18 inches tall and 36 inches wide. Light lavender flowers appear in season, and ‘Entranced’ is known to set pods easily, making it an outstanding breeder as well as a display plant.

An elite streaked hosta combining verified originator stock, proven fertility, and extreme rarity.
