World Cup

Hosta "World Cup" review

Hosta of the Year for 2018 (HOTY). Rich gold foliage that is distinctly cupped. Hybrid of 'Komodo Dragon' x 'Super Bowl' that combines the best of both parents. From the breeding program of Doug Beilstein, Mansfield, OH. This hosta is destined to find its way into the Top 25. It is also the one that got away. Selected from Doug Beilstein's seedlings by Mark Zilis' keen eye, this very tall and very upright bright yellow hosta is a showstopper where ever you see it.
