Hosta 'Second Wind' is a striking perennial known for its bold, heart-shaped leaves that feature a unique variegation of bright yellow centers with dark green margins. As the season progresses, the yellow becomes a creamy white, creating a dynamic, changing color effect. This variety has a vigorous growth habit, forming a full, dense mound that adds texture and interest to shaded garden areas. In mid-summer, 'Second Wind' produces tall spikes of lavender flowers that attract pollinators like hummingbirds and bees. Thriving in moist, well-drained soil and partial to full shade, Hosta 'Second Wind' is perfect for woodland gardens, shaded borders, or as a statement plant in mixed beds, offering both beauty and contrast throughout the growing season.
