Hosta 'White Ceiling'
 

 

This upright, fast growing cultivar is a seedling of H. 'Urajiro Hachijo' which was registered by Danny Van Eechaute of Belgium in 2006. It is a medium size plant about 12 inches high by 19 inches wide with dark green foliage. The leaves are lightly folded, ovate and slightly shiny on top. Pale lavender, tubular flowers bloom from mid-July into August.

Mikiko Lockwood in an article on The Hosta Library titled, A Little About Japanese Hosta Terms defines the term urajiro as white-backed or white underside.
