A sport of Gold Standard, with the same vigor and leaf form. These heart shaped leaves emerge green with a white margin. The center color transitions early summer to yellow for a different contrast to the white margin. But the show's not over! As a final display, mid summer, the centers turn parchment white. A soft contrast to the bright white margin. Plant with special attention to lighting. This hosta will not color well in deep shade. Too much sun will burn the white center. We suggest providing morning sun for best color. A kaleidoscope of colors when planted in a drift with changing light. Leaf: 7" x 5" Plant: 20" x 36" Bloom: Lavender. Lighting: 1/4 to 3/4 sun. Growth: Rapid.
