Midwesterners, grab your trowels and celebrate! Here's a hosta that actually needs heat and humidity to survive.

Introduced by the Indiana Hosta Society, this sport of 'Royal Standard' produces shiny golden leaves trimmed with an irregularly painted green border. The white flowers are fragrant, held above the foliage on tall scapes that emphasize the plant's somewhat upright habit.

This is a stable cultivar that performs best with morning sun, and, like all hosta, some regular water (about an inch per week).

Pot size: 4.5"sq x 5.0" (1004 ml, or ~one quart).
