Hosta "Ki Nakafu Otome" review
'Kinakafu Otome'. =venusta 'Aureonebulosa'. =venusta 'Kinakafu'. =venusta 'Gold-centered'. This is a fairly new Japanese selection of the "thumbnail hosta" which is a fair description of its foliage size; the leaves are actually little hearts. This selection has a green margin with a yellow-green center. The variegation is clear in the spring, becoming indistinct in late summer. There are 6" scapes of lavender bells too.
