Hosta Kempen Red Twist will form a medium sized mound of 35cm-50cm with a spread of up to 70cm at maturity. Registered by the well-known Belgian breeder Patrick Butaye in 2013–2014, this Hosta grew as an open-pollinated seedling from Hosta Tequila Sunrise. Long, narrow, lance-shaped dark green leaves featuring an intensely wavy, ruffled margin and a satin-like sheen. Its highly upright, vase-shaped growth habit perfectly showcases its intense red legs against its glossy green foliage. Notable for its intense red-to-purple petioles. During July & August it produces pale lavender blooms held on tall red scapes of up to 90cm.
