Hosta Plantain Lily Gold Standard

Illuminate your shaded garden with Gold Standard Hosta, a vigorous and easy-to-grow variety that transforms through the season. Emerging lime green in spring, the large heart-shaped leaves mature to bright chartreuse-yellow with contrasting dark green margins, creating stunning color combinations. Reaching 20 inches tall with a 3-foot spread, this substantial hosta forms dense, low-mounding clumps perfect for borders, mass plantings, and groundcover. Pale lavender bell-shaped flowers appear on tall scapes in midsummer, adding vertical interest above the luminous foliage. Excellent for brightening deep shade and superb in containers where its evolving color can be appreciated up close.
