What Does This
Symbol Mean?
Keeping its yellow tones far longer than others, this exceptional medium-sized Hosta regales with a combination of yellow and red tones. In spring, the new leaves open brilliant yellow on claret-red stems. They keep their color through the worst summer heat, becoming chartreuse only late in summer. The petioles remain red all season, and are joined by slender red 24-inch flowerstems holding tiny purple blooms high above the foliage for several weeks. Highly recommended, this superb cultivar is the brightest member of the Hosta garden! Zones 3-9.
