Rainbow's End Hosta is a compact shade-loving herbaceous perennial primarily grown for its dramatic foliage. The large and glossy basal leaves have variegated dark green stripped with creamy yellow that lightens to white that is different on each leaf. Small bell-like lavender flowers raise up on red scapes in late summer attracting butterflies and pollinators. Best color in partial sun and moist well-drained soils.
