Hosta 'Adrian's Glory'
Hosta ‘Adrian’s Glory’ — commonly known as Adrian’s Glory Hosta — is a medium-sized perennial prized for its broad leaves with creamy yellow to chartreuse centers surrounded by rich green margins. The center color brightens through spring and summer, creating strong contrast in shaded gardens, while the slightly puckered foliage forms a dense mound. Pale lavender flowers rise above the foliage in midsummer on upright scapes.
