True blue is a rare color in plants. There are some flowers with blue hues but foliage plants tend to be more gray or green than blue. Green- and gold-colored foliage plants are everywhere. This plant is considered the grandfather of all blue-leaved hostas, and its thick, rounded, corrugated blue leaves develop into a 4-foot-wide by 2-foot-tall clump.
The new leaf will contain 14 chromosomes, because during mitosis, a cell makes an exact copy of itself. Therefore, the number of the chromosomes in that cell stay the same.
