Hosta "King Tut" review
12" tall. Part Sun to Light Shade. Light green leaves turn yellow/gold as season ends. Near-white flowers in June. A medium sized bright gold with heart shaped medium sized leaves. This difficult to find hybrid from the late Gretchen Harshbarger has lovely bright golden heavily textured wide leaves (emerges green). Each 2' wide clump is topped with near white flowers in early summer on 3' tall scapes. A wonderful bright gold with good substance, heart-shaped leaves; white flwrs. An outstanding bright gold hosta with thick, heart-shaped leaves. White flowers. Large, leaves charteuse early but soon turn yellow, light lavendar flowers in July. A hybrid of tokudama 'Aureonebulosa' with bright gold rounded, heart-shaped leaves, nicely puckered. White flowers.
