The Golden Tiara Hosta is an award winning, Landscaper favorite. This small to medium-sized hosta packs a colorful punch with foliage that transforms as it ages from green with chartreuse, irregular margins to yellow, then fades to a soft creamy color with chartreuse streaks. Showy scapes of purple flowers appear in summer. The Golden Tiara looks stunning as border or mixed in with other hostas such as Elegans or Fragrant Blue. It also looks stunning mixed in with other colorful, shade loving perennials such as Astilbe, Huchero, and Fern. An herbaceous perennial.
