Hosta 'Banana Kid'
Hosta 'Banana Kid' is a compact, eye-catching variety prized for its bright, banana-yellow foliage that brings a fresh splash of colour to shaded areas of the garden. Its neatly rounded habit makes it perfect for smaller spaces, edging, or container planting.
The smooth, slightly cupped leaves emerge vibrant yellow and hold their colour well through the season, especially when grown in partial shade. In summer, elegant spikes of pale lavender flowers rise above the foliage, adding seasonal interest and attracting pollinators.
