How about:
Risky Business...the tips of the leaves are twisted
Tijuana Brass...the leaves are so distorted that one doesn't know if the plant is upsidedown...lol
Stetson...looks like a Cowboy hat..
Hanky Panky...perhaps

Papou

Morning Don

Loyalist & Whirlwind have contorted leaves.

Curtis/m2m

Spring Fling!

'Tijuana Brass' is on the list already, but thanks for saying something Papou, since I realized it wasn't in correct alphabetical order. I also have lists of "Twisted-leaved Hostas" and "Folded-leaved Hostas." Some hostas may be on more than one list. For example, a hosta may have twisted and folded leaves. Let me know of any changes or additions. Thank. Don

PS It's fun to go through the lists, looking at photos on the Hosta Library.

I think Regalia has an interesting contorted wave...a little like an embroidery...

Golden Meadows? Looks kinda like Regalia!
The one I have has an edge like Embroidery, but not
quite as pronounced yet!

playinmud (Donna) - and I were just talking about Regalia yesterday. It looks like Regalia but easier to grow.

I believe that Five O'Clock Somewhere has contorted leaves.

Janice, Do you have a pic of your Golden Meadows that you would like to share? On the hosta library, the two-tone coloration seems more prounounced than Regalia, however I though Regalia was a green blue and upon further investigation and hosta library pics that may not be the case...

I think Radio Waves should be on the list.

I'd be glad to, hostabuff--let me look through my pics. tonight and see if I have one earlier,
in Spring--it's viridescent and darkened right now! Spring is awesome for it!

Also:
Winter Lightning...
Hart's Tongue, maybe...
Fireworks - also maybe, similar to Fire & Ice.

Digs.

I'm not sure if this is would count but my Paradise Surprise is kind of folded and corrugated. This is summer #2 for it so I'm not sure what it will look like when it's mature.

My Yellow Waves is well....wavy (and a little sun-bleached right now)

I've bumped this back up, because the thought to post a pic. of my "Golden Meadows"
has been nagging at the back of my poor brain, and I wanted "Hostabuff" to see
what I did capture, but, unfortunately, not before it started going viridescent!

I'm sorry it has taken so long to look for this one for you HB!

janice

I love GM, can't wait for mine to grow up!

Flowersformyfarm, Paradise Suprise is a streaked 'Love Pat' it is trying to cup up now. Gonna look sweet when it matures! I can't tell from your pic how streaked yours is, but it would (could) be a stellar pod parent later on.
Five O'Clock Somewhere isn't in this category, imho.
Great Spring Fling pic, Teresa! Love that one. My Regalia I don't even have a pic of. Needs moved. Too much shade!
Winter Lightning pic:

I like wl also but it should go in the misted/streaked instead - i think - not contorted

Hi Everyone,
I've been enjoying the pics everyone has posted. The list of "Contorted-leaved Hostas" refers to the leaf shape, not the coloring. According to Webster's, the word "contort" means to twist in a violent manner; to twist into a strained shape or expression; deform. Of course, any list of "Contorted-leaved Hostas" is somewhat subjective. My goal is to have those plants on the list that are unmistakenly twisted and "deformed" into a wierd shape. Perhaps a few of those suggested meet this criteria???
As far as 'Winter Lightning,' this unique hosta is on my list of "Splash-leaved Hostas" and my list of "Speckled-leaved Hostas." Should it be added to "Contorted-leaved Hostas" also? Don
