Butterfly IconHummingbird Icon

Plant Type: Hostas

‘Yellow Polka Dot Bikini’ has bright yellow borders that eventually turn apple green.  The leaf center is dark green and the typical ‘Striptease’ white line divides the two.  It is a beautiful hosta emerging from the soil. Then the magical spring show begins, bringing out the white area between a dark green center and the yellow margin. Leaves twist and cup a little and then flatten out later. Lavender flowers midsummer.
