Hosta "Morning Light" review
'Dawn Light'. =STEAL THE LIMELIGHT (TM). Tetraploid. The reverse form of 'Twilight' with golden yellow centers, turning white in summer with bright light, with green margins. A real beauty…a stunning reverse variegation of Hosta 'Twilight' with golden-yellow centers and wide dark green margins. Clump is topped with pale lavender flowers in June. Amazing! First Hosta 'Fortunei Aureomarginata' had its chromosomes doubled, making the leaves thicker and the margins much wider. Now the color patterns have been reversed, giving us this stunning new hybrid Hosta 'Morning Light'. The amazingly thick golden foliage is surrounded by a wide, dark green margin. Each 2-3' wide clump is topped in midsummer with sturdy stalks of light lavender flowers. I predict nothing short of STARDOM for this dynamite new hosta!
