Hosta Whirlwind forms a medium-sized mound reaching 45cm-50cm in height and up to 100cm in width at maturity. This variegated Hosta is notable for its changing leaf colouration throughout the season, making it a valuable addition to shaded areas. Its foliage consists of ovate to heart-shaped leaves that are folded, twisted, and pointed, with creamy white to lime green centres surrounded by broad dark green margins. The leaf centre transitions from creamy white in spring to light green by midsummer. The primary attraction of this plant lies in its remarkable foliage. It exhibits resistance to scorching when exposed to sunlight and appears to be resistant to slugs. From July to August, funnel-shaped lavender flowers bloom on 60cm long scapes. Hosta Whirlwind is an excellent standard variety for any collection and comes highly recommended. It has been awarded the RHS Award of Garden Merit and has received recognition from the American Hosta Society with the Distinguished Merit Hosta award 2007..
