InfoHosta 'Lakeside Little Tuft' rapidly grows to form a tuft of green and yellow. This small plant's lance-shaped leaves have little or no petioles. It is a focal point when nestled among rocks, ferns or small companion plants in the shade garden. Orchid flowers on low-growing scapes adorn the clump. It is a 1997 introduction having lance-shaped leaves with tapered bases. The parentage is H. "Lakeside seedling" x H. "Lakeside seedling." [MC].
