Expect the unexpected!
A surprising splash of bold colour awaits beneath this upright hosta variety. As if the bright green foliage edged in icy white wasn't enough to tempt you, Sorbet displays contrasting red petioles that really cause a stir. A truly unique variety, it's ideal for brightening shady borders or container gardens. We love to see Sorbet in large feature beds where it can really spread out and show off its magnificent colours. Lavender flowers in late summer add even more colour to the mix! For maximum impact in the landscape, plant in groups along a garden path or shadowy walkway.
