Hosta 'Ki Nakafu Otome' is a vigorous, fast-multiplying selection of the Korean Hosta venusta that has small, wavy, golden leaves surrounded by a darker green border. In late summer, the central variegation pattern eventually fades to solid green. The 20" wide clump is topped in early summer with 18" scapes of dark lavender flowers...extremely cute!
