Hosta ‘Pineapple Upsidedown Cake’
Plant number: 1.276.700
Hosta are among the most popular of perennials for shady areas, with hundreds of varieties now readily available. Plants form a sturdy mound of foliage, topped with lily-like blooms. This medium-sized selection has narrow, rippled leaves, green in spring then developing gold centers in the summer. Lavender flowers in August. Suitable also for planting in mixed containers or tubs. Hosta go completely dormant in the fall, and the dying foliage can be removed any time before mid spring. Easily divided in either spring or fall, but plants may be left alone for years.
