Hosta 'Red Wing'

This medium size (17 inches high by 36 inches wide) cultivar from Dr. Ralph (Herb) Benedict of Michigan is a seedling of H. 'Neat Splash'. Kevin Walek (Hosta Registrar) registered it on behalf of Herb in 2009. Its foliage is light green with a darker green marginal variegation and the leaves are narrowly ovate, slightly corrugated, slightly rippled and has average substance. The flowers are semi-bell-shaped, medium purple in color and bloom in August.

According to The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "...offers foliage with the unusual combination of a greenish white center and dark green margin."
