Info='Amy Elisabeth'.
Color reversed sport of H. 'Abby'.
Leaves are chartreuse green and make a compact mound.
Interesting variegated hosta, darker green mingled with the lighter green; veins are very prominent.
Q&Z nursery introduction first sold in 1999, but first year we have enough to include in our catalog; reversed sport of 'Abby'; excellent growth rate; makes a good contrast to all of the 'Gold Drop' sports in the landscape.
Reverse sport of H. 'Abby' leaves start out with a chartreuse center which later turns gold and a wide dark green margin. Rapid grower with lavender flowers midsummer.
