This award-winning hosta's leaves sprout while springtime chases away the final chills of winter, but you'll enjoy Autumn Frost all the way through the fall. Outstandingly thick and gorgeous foliage emerges frosty blue with a yellow margin that lightens to creamy white in summer. The result? A nice-sized mound of heart-shaped leaves topped with hummingbird-attracting flowers that will enhance any shady area. A sport, or genetic mutation, of 'First Frost'—which is, itself, a sport of the beloved blue 'Halcyon' hosta, Autumn Frost tops them all for showy leaves and extra wide margins.
