Hosta Yellow Polkadot Bikini will form a medium sized mound of about 10 -12" in height, with a spread of up to 24", at maturity. It emerges with bright yellow margins gradually turn to an apple green with white lines dividing the center and margin. Slightly twisted and cupped, flattening out later. Leaf centre is dark and shows the typical Hosta Striptease white line. Hosta Yellow Polka Dot Bikini is quite distinctive early on but as it changes it begins to look very similar to Hosta Hanky Panky. The beautiful spring show is well worth having the plant. Hosta Yellow Polka Dot Bikini is a relatively slow grower, and takes a while to get going, so it remains smaller than its parent. Fascinating to watch as the colours shift. Lavender flowers on 18" scapes, in summer. Neither sun tolerant nor slug resistant.
