Hosta sieboldiana Eskimo Pie PP 16290 5a Well drained soilHosta 'Eskimo Pie' is an amazing reverse sport from the popular Hosta 'Northern Exposure'. Each round, corrugated, blue green leaf is highlighted by a large, creamy central pattern. As the season progresses, the central pattern lightens to a parchment white. This has proven to be a very good grower, making a 3' wide clump topped in late spring with near white hummingbird friendly flowers atop 30" scapes.
