I’ve had Hosta Sun Power for a several years, but for one reason or the other, never under ideal conditions.
Last spring, I divided my clump and planted it in the raised corner bed to provide a backdrop for my Santa Cruz and San Francisco begonia.
Here is the same bed a year later. You can see how rapidly Hosta Sun Power is filling the space. A mature Sun Power has a spread of up to 5 feet so one clump will fill most of the awkward to reach back corner of this bed.
The foliage on Hosta Sun Power is high impact with its bright chartreuse to gold color and slightly rippled leaf edges.
No margins or variegation on these leaves, Sun Power makes a showy statement without them.
Mine are in flower with pretty spikes of pale lavender or orchid colored blooms.
