Hosta 'Praying Hands' — Unique Upright Plantain Lily

'Praying Hands' offers a distinctive twist on traditional hostas with its upright, tightly rolled, narrow green leaves edged in creamy yellow. The rippled leaf margins and glossy texture give it a sculptural look — like hands folded in prayer.

Perfect for containers, borders, and shaded focal points, this award-winning variety is compact but striking. Lavender flowers bloom on tall scapes in late summer, attracting pollinators. An exceptional conversation starter in any garden.
