Info | This glowing hosta is a melody of fine qualities: Color, sheen, form and grace. Emerging midspring in glowing, creamy, chartreuse hues, the color changes gradually through the course of the season to that of a burnished golden chartreuse. One of its most appealing assets is the glowing sheen evidenced throughout the season. It reminds us of the beautiful tiffany finish of fine porcelain. Ultimately attaining a pleasing, semi-pendent mound of about 22" across and 16" high. Petioles have a distinctive pink midrib. The form is another matter which is pleasing to the eye. The elongated, semi-lanceolate leaves with their softly rounded ends rise from the center of the clump and then, ever so gracefully, arch gently downward. As with most hostas of this color, it is at its best given early morning sun, followed by dappled, high shade. A mature clump is a matter of distinctive grace and elegance. Very well received last year. For the hybridizer, 'Tiffany Tune' produces a high percentage of golds in a variety of hues. |
