Info | 2016 National Convention hosta in St. Louis, MO. This sport of 'Banana Split' features super shiny green foliage that arches upward to form a large semi-upright clump at maturity. The real surprise comes in midsummer with pink scapes and cherry red pods. Quickly forms a dense mound of upright green leaves with very thick substance. Red speckled seed pods turn cherry red upon maturity. |
