Hosta 'Designer Genes'

Considered by many to be the best yellow hosta with red petioles, ‘Designer Genes’ is a consistent and vigorous hosta. In spring, bold yellow leaves emerge from burgundy shoots to create a beautiful contrast. This vigorous hosta will reach full size quickly and compared to other yellow hostas, keeps its color later in the season slowly transitioning from bright yellow to chartreuse green. Hostas are a popular perennial due to their flexibility and tolerance of many types of sunlight, but are best known for their success in shade. They are a great plant for supporting the showier members of your garden collective, but can offer many striking features in their own right. Hostas come in thousands of different varieties and many distinct shapes and colors. There is truly a hosta for every occasion or situation. They are hardy plants that can thrive in pristine and urban environments alike. Pair with Coral Bells for an excellent variety of shade tolerant low lying plants for walkways, borde
