Designer Genes Hosta - Live Plant- Quart Pot - Golden Yellow Leaves/Red Stems

HOSTA: It is difficult to find a garden that is without this versatile East Asian native. Lush foliage in diverse colors, heights and textures, coupled with its ability to excel in deep shade have captured gardeners’ hearts everywhere. This seedling of 'Miss Susie' has brilliant yellow leaves that contrast nicely with the red petioles. ‘Designer Genes’ is incredibly striking in the spring as the brilliant yellow leaves emerge from contrasting deep wine red shoots. As the leaves emerge, the tips of the leaves are tinged red which I love seeing each spring. It quickly grows to form a medium sized mound of bright yellow leaves with showy bright red petioles. Hosta 'Designer Genes' holds on to its yellow color longer into the season than other red petiole gold varieties. In deep shade the leaves will be lime-green in summer. Purple flowers held up on beautiful red scapes in late summer. Mature Size: 12 inches tall by 28 inches wide
