Hosta 'Hawaiian Luau'

[M] Bring a bit of tropical paradise to your garden with this sport of 'Pineapple Upsidedown Cake'. The foliage of 'Hawaiian Luau' is much thicker than its parent, suggesting it is likely a tetraploid. Long, twisted leaves start out chartreuse before brightening to yellow. Deep green margins are wavy, and contrast beautifully against the bright yellow centers. Hosta 'Hawaiian Luau' grows into a colorful, lively clump about 18" tall and 30" across that flows and moves like a tropical dancer. Lavender flowers bloom in late summer.
