Hosta "Lakeside April Snow" review
'Lakeside April Snow' (1994) is appropriately named. This large, compact, vigorous plant displays heart-shaped leaves whose soft spring green is edged with a wide, snow-white band. Its leaves often have streaks of white running into the center. All of this is capped with proportioned scapes of near-white tubular flowers. The plant has good substance. Its parentage is Hosta 'Fascination' x 'Lakeside Symphony'. [MC]. Heart-shaped leaves are soft lime-green with a deep irregular creamy margin that sometimes streaks to the center, cream changes to white in summer. Medium to large spreading mound of large heart shaped lime green leaves with a wide cream margin. Near white flowers in June. Good color. Clump of heart shaped soft lime green leaves with a deep irregular cream margin often streaking to the center, cream changes to white by mid summer, excellent. Large heart-shaped leaves are yellow becoming lime green with a wide cream margin. An outstanding color combination! Near-white flowers.
