Hosta ‘Drop-dead Gorgeous’ lives up to its name with a massive presence and beautifully contrasting foliage. Large, ovate green leaves are framed by broad, bright yellow margins that are heavily rippled, giving the entire plant a softly wavy appearance.
As the plant matures, the substantial foliage forms an impressive mound that can reach 30 inches tall and more than 7 feet wide. White flowers rise above the foliage in midsummer, but the foliage is unquestionably the star of the show.
