Hosta - Orange Marmalade
Hosta ‘Orange Marmalade’ is an eye-catching shade perennial that's like a living sunrise in your garden. In spring, the leaves unfurl with deep green margins and vibrant golden-orange centers, which gradually mellow to creamy-white by summer—creating a striking, seasonal color transformation. Mid-summer brings elegant pale lavender blooms on tall scapes, attracting hummingbirds and pollinators. A vigorous, fast-growing sport of ‘Paul’s Glory’, it's perfect for making a bold statement in borders, containers, or shade gardens, and has received the RHS Award of Garden Merit.
