Hosta ‘Tortilla Chip’


Hosta

 USDA Zone: 2-9

Plant number: 1.276.990


Hosta are among the most popular of perennials for shady areas, with hundreds of varieties now readily available. Plants form sturdy mounds of foliage, topped with lily-like blooms. This midsized selection has bright golden-yellow leaves and a smooth texture. Fragrant lavender flowers appear in August. A good specimen selection to brighten any shady corner. Protect from hot afternoon sun. Clumps may be easily divided in the spring or fall. An all-gold sport of H. 'Guacamole’ from Bob Solberg of Green Hill Farm in North Carolina.
