This is one of the most exciting new hostas that we've grown in a long time...a chartreuse-edged Hosta plantaginea. If you like Hosta plantaginea, then you will love Hosta 'Ming Treasure'. The nice, wide, chartreuse margin intensifies in color against the light green background as the season progresses. Delighting hummingbirds in August, the clump is topped with 2' tall stalks, ending in 8" long fragrant pure white flowers...it's got it all!
