InfoLeaf center changes from yellow to creamy white.
Outstanding substance and holds well into the fall.
Thick leaves have a blue-green border around a yellow center.
As the season progresses the yellow center turns to a parchment color and the border goes to dark green. Topped with lavender flowers.
The clump holds and looks good long after most other hostas have gone down.
