A breakthrough in the quest for getting red into hosta leaves from Bob Solberg. The spring foliage will start to "blush" red from the tip of the leaf down toward the base. The red color holds until temperatures reach into the 90s, after which the foliage is all green. The red petioles extend into the leaf blade. Grows 12" tall x 24" wide. Lavender flowers in late summer.
