Plant Type: Hostas

Hosta ‘Peach Salsa’ is a sibling to ‘Smiley Face’ and ‘Mango Salsa’ that boasts soft yellow leaves held on bright red petioles. Bob says that it has the brightest red petioles and scapes of the group. Soft yellow leaves stay yellow in shade and will become white when exposed to too much sun. The lightly puckered leaves form a neat mound. The bright red scapes with purple flowers held above the yellow foliage make a stunning display in July! Medium sized hosta.
