Abstract

A new and distinct Hosta plant named ‘Wind beneath My Wings’ with large rounded-mound habit of dense, lanceolate foliage of heavy glaucous bluish-colored above and whitish-blue below, retaining the glaucous covering until the end of summer. Long lanceolate leaves with sharply pointed apices and cordate base have undulate margins and the slightly impressed veins with moderate dimpling between the veins and sinuate margins. The plant has flowers in August with pale lavender outer tepals with the tepals inside distinctly striped in the middle of the tepals with a darker lavender and white on the margins. The new plant is attractive and useful in landscaping as a specimen, in mass, or as a containerized plant by itself or in combination with other plants.
