Hosta "Little Aurora" review
10" tall. Part Sun to Light Shade. Small heart shaped gold with cupped leaf excellent. Hosta 'Little Aurora' is a classic in the small hosta world. This brilliant golden dwarf makes a perfect clump of thick round golden leaves. Each clump reaches a mature spread of 20". In late spring, the 10" scapes hold the light lavender flowers above the foliage. Hosta 'Little Aurora' is confused in the trade with the virtually nonexistent Hosta 'Golden Prayers'. Golden leaves are cupped, puckered and have a metallic sheen; lavender flowers. A striking plant with thick, round, bright metallic gold leaves, cupped and puckered. Probably the smallest of the tokudama types. Lavender flowers. A very bright dwarf gold which is awesome as a small specimen plant or for edging. (Plant 12x8)
