Hosta Moonlight

Product Description

Hosta Moonlight is a subtly attractive variety. A sport of Gold Standard, registered way back in 1977, which is almost prehistory in Hosta terms. Basically a flattish gold leaf, but the margin is superb. A clean white edge, such as every man would like to see in his freshly laundered shirts. Between this edge and the main leaf centre is a feint shading of dark green, inherited from the green border parent variety, which really makes a sharp contrast.In my experience this variety is somewhat less vigorous than Gold Standard, and it really needs careful positioning, dappled shade or morning sun, to bring out it’s true beauty.
