This amazing small hosta is a sport from Bill Vaughn's wonderful dwarf, Hosta 'Maui Buttercups'. The fluorescent golden leaf is surrounded by a dramatic border of dark green. This is truly a stunning and distinctive new hosta. Each small 16" wide clump of Hosta 'Rainforest Sunrise' is topped in early summer with an 18" tall scape of very attractive white flowers.
