Dan Wols of Illinois masters everything he sets his mind to, and hybridising hostas is no exception! His garden is a treasure chest of stunning hybrids, and we are excited that some of his creations are getting into our gardens! Everyone that has seen Hosta ‘Skywriter’ instantly understands that hybridizer Dan Wols knows what he is doing. Some of his fabulous introductions include Hosta Effervescence, Hosta Eclipse of the Heart & Hosta Hotshot.
And now his Hosta Skywriter, so good it has been named Hosta of the Year 2025.
Hosta Skywriter will form a beautifully architectural, medium sized mound of 14"-16" in height, with a spread of up to 32". It has rippled leaves which are white on the backsides. Firm, steel-blue leaves with a wavy margin on purple petioles. The leaves seem to wiggle in all directions and form a beautiful clump that will find a home in any home garden. A really fantastic plant with all the good characteristics. You really need this Hosta in your garden! Hosta Skywriter is an absolutely great blue Hosta. Elegant and perfect, that's my description! Slug resistant and sun tolerant. Lavender flowers on 30" purple scapes in late summer.
We have in stock some of Dan's other wonderful varieties, just click the links to take a look.
