Hosta 'My Friend Bertha'
 

Originated by Walters Gardens, Inc. of Michigan, this non-registered cultivar is a sport of H. 'Blue Mouse Ears'.  This is a tetraploid plant that is "short and stocky" compared to the mother plant. It is a slow growing, small size hosta with blue-green foliage that turns dark green later in the season. The leaves are nearly round and slightly cupped. In July, it bears clusters of pale purple flowers but is sterile so does not produce seeds.
