            Hosta 'Fire Island'


            What a metamorphosis! In early spring, slender
            red petioles slowly emerge from the earth.
            Brilliant yellow leaves gradually open from
            their tips. As the season progresses, the broad,
            ovate leaves develop rippled margins
            and darken to chartreuse. Lavender flowers
            appear midsummer. Plants thrive in full shade.
