Description

The Textured Blue That Keeps Its Composure

Another masterwork from Mark Zilis's Tini Collection, Hosta 'Cooltini' is a small-scale standout bred from Hosta 'Blue Dimples' × Hosta 'Shining Tot'. Designed for consistency and seasonal interest, it emerges with a refreshing metallic blue-green that slowly matures into a deep forest green by August — ensuring your borders look composed even as the Canadian summer heat peaks, from the humid Great Lakes to the crisp air of the Foothills.

Dynamic Colour Shift: Medium blue-green foliage transforms into a sophisticated, saturated dark green as the season progresses, offering two distinct looks in one plant.
Distinctive Texture: Ovate leaves feature a slightly rippled and corrugated surface, adding architectural puckering rarely seen in such a compact plant.
Splash of Crimson: Red-dotted petioles at the base provide a subtle but refined detail that sets it apart from standard blue miniatures.
Late-Season Life: Pale purple tubular flowers from mid-August through September offer a final burst of colour before autumn dormancy.

Feature	Specification
Size (H × W)	28 cm × 66 cm (11" × 26")
Hardiness Zone	3–9
Colour	Medium blue-green to deep forest green
Light Requirements	Partial to full shade

Grower's Tip: Because 'Cooltini' transitions from blue to green through the season, it pairs beautifully near consistent blues like Hosta 'Halcyon' to highlight its unique seasonal darkening. We never ship dormant crowns — we wait for the corrugated leaves and red-dotted petioles to emerge at our Bécancour, QC trial fields to verify health and True to Type pedigree before your plant is cleared for travel.
