Unique features of Hosta 'Steady On'
Hosta 'Steady On' stands out with its distinct appearance and unique qualities. Its foliage has an eye-catching reddish-brown petiole combined with wavy leaf margins that are white-backed, creating a beautiful contrast. This captivating plant, grown from Japanese-sourced seed, is truly distinctive among hostas due to its exceptional visual traits.
Uncommon floral display
The standout feature of this cultivar is its near-blue flower blooms. Rare in hostas, these bottle-shaped blossoms will capture the interest of gardeners and collectors alike. This remarkable flowering pattern provides an exquisite visual complement to any shade garden or curated collection, adding a touch of rarity and charm.
A notable collector's item
Not only does Hosta 'Steady On' offer aesthetic appeal, but it also carries historical significance. It was notably acquired at the 2018 AHS Convention auction in Philadelphia, where it's believed to be the only one ever sold. This enhances its desirability for those seeking exclusive additions to their gardens. We believe, but cannot confirm, that our plant may be the only division of the Originator's Plant that has been sold.
