Okay finally here is the last Hosta. The leaves are a variegated with white/cream edges that look painted on. They have a slightly rough texture, not shiny and very distinct veins measuring approx 7"x4". The blossoms are a lavender color on 19-20" stems. Not really a noticeable fragrance.

Thank you all for your help!
