Hosta 'Valley's Red Scorpion'
 

This upright growing hybrid of two unnamed "Valley's" seedlings was registered by Jeroen Linneman of the Netherlands in 2015. It is a fast growing cultivar which reaches a large size about 27 inches high by 36 inches wide. The leaves are medium green, moderately twisted, deeply folded, moderately wavy and shiny on top. Pale purple flowers bloom from August into September and then set viable seeds.

The registration materials state: "...red of the petioles disappears during the growing season...big elegant hosta with green wavy leaves, red of the petioles runs far into the leaves and veins"
