Plant Type: Hostas

Hosta ‘Prairie’s Edge’ is a 2015 Walters Gardens introduction that arose as a sport of the all-gold Hosta ‘Prairie Fire’, plus the addition of a 1.5″ wide dark green border. The resulting 18″ tall x 40″ wide, upright, fountain-like clump of corrugated foliage emerges chartreuse-gold with a dark green border. The central gold pattern is lutescent and brightens first to pure gold, then to parchment white-gold as the season progresses. The 28″ stalks of nearly white flowers top the stunning clump in midsummer.
