Fantasy Island Hosta is a dwarf shade-loving herbaceous perennial primarily grown for its lightly waved deep green basal foliage with creamy center variegation lined with chartreuse. The tall scapes of light purple bell-like flowers raise up above the mound in mid-summer attracting butterflies and pollinators. Best bloom in partial sun and moist well-drained soils. Fantasy Island has improved sun resistance.
