Hosta of the Year for 2021 (HOTY).
This new, small hosta is one of the more dramatic and unique hostas that we have ever grown. This Hans Hansen sport of Hosta 'Obsession' boasts very thick, canoe-shaped leaves with a bright golden center, surrounded by a wide, dark black border. Our 1' wide clumps are topped in midsummer with short red-purple flower spikes of attractive dark lavender flowers.
