Hosta 'Raspberry Sundae'
- This hosta has a unique colour combination, with creamy white centres to the leaves, an irregular green margin and a splash of raspberry red on the leaf bases and at the centre of the leaves
- Violet purple flowers bloom throughout August and September
- A fully hardy, shade-loving perennial which we think should be shown off in a large pot or in the centre of a border
- Grows to a compact 25-30cm in height and 40-50cm spread
- Hosta's low, spreading habit makes it an ideal groundcover plant - they're so easy to grow, too!
