This Hosta has a most charming combination of beautifully variegated leaves, punctuated with deep burgundy petioles, leaf bases and stalks, a feat of years of careful breeding selections. To top it off the flowers, which appear in Autumn, are a stunning deep lavender purple. The leaves will start out cream and green, lightening and brightening to white with maturity. As with all hostas shade is the preferred planting position.
