ISLAND BREEZE

Wide edged sport of Paradise Island from Walters Gardens Inc. Wide dark green margins stand out in sharp contrast to the bright yellow centres in early spring. As summer progresses the centres become more chartreuse when plants are grown in heavier shade or pale yellow if they are grown in more sun. Like Paradise Island this hosta also has showy red speckled petioles with the red color bleeding up into the leaves. Dark lavender flowers appear on reddish green scapes in mid-summer.
