This new "Tiara" introduction makes a vigorous growing 2' wide clump of yellow leaves with a medium green border. After the leaves emerge, the center changes to parchment white while the new growth maintains the golden color. In early summer, the clumps are topped with abundant 2' stalks of dark lavender flowers. Although Hosta 'Stolen Kiss' was introduced as a sport of H. 'Cheatin Heart', it is actually a sport from the tiara series...probably H. 'Emerald Sceptre'.
