Hosta 'Stranded on a Sandbar'

[S] Part of Bob Solberg's "bar" series, this sport of 'Lettuce Wrap' proves that being stranded on a peaceful sandbar might not be so bad! Hosta 'Stranded on a Sandbar' has rounded, chartreuse-yellow leaves edged by relatively wide, yellow margins that turn creamy-white by mid summer. The leaves become puckered and wrinkled with maturity, and set atop red petioles. Hosta 'Stranded on a Sandbar' forms a vigorous growing clump about 7" tall and 14" across that blooms in late summer with rich, mahogany-red scapes of light purple flowers. The late Jimmy Buffett would approve!
