Hosta Forbidden Fruit will form a medium mound of 18"-20" in height with a spread of up to 45" at maturity. Marco Fransen brings us a stunning hosta, the fully tetraploid form of Hosta Orange Marmalade. Thick leaves have glowing yellow-orange centers set off by a wide blue-green border and can be seen from across the garden. Leaf centre is almost white late in the season. Will be brightest if grown in some sun. A stunning hosta! One of those Hostas that you that you can't resist because of the colour contrast. Proving to be a vigorous grower that will be topped with lavender flowers on 28" scapes, in July & August. This Hosta is a real stand out piece in any garden. Sun tolerant to enhance the colours, as well as slug resistant. RHS Award Of Garden Merit.
