Info | Sport of 'Cadillac' with a wider margin. Yellow leaves with a broad green edge. A tetraploid sport of 'Cadillac' that is proving to be less prone to burning than its parent. Heavy, golden leaves are bordered by a wide, dark green margin. Foliage shows good substance and becomes lightly puckered with age. Hosta 'Prestige and Promise' grows slowly into a beautiful, 20 inch wide mound that is crowned with near white flowers in early summer. |
