Rainforest Sunrise Hosta is a shade-loving herbaceous perennial primarily grown for its dramatic foliage.  The corrugated heart-shaped basal foliage emerges solid chartreuse and matures to bright yellow with broad green margins.   Small bell-like near white lavender flowers raise up on scapes in mid summer attracting butterflies and pollinators.  Best color in partial sun and moist well-drained soils.  Rainforest Sunshine has good resistance to slug damage.
