Description

Luminous Golden Foliage Paired with Deep Sanguine Accents

Hosta 'Cranberry Wine' is a small-medium viridescent hosta bred by Kathie Sisson from H. 'Cinnamon Sticks' and H. 'Tequila Sunrise'. Its shiny, pointed leaves open bright yellow and shift to rich chartreuse as the Canadian summer progresses. The defining feature is the saturated cranberry-red of its petioles and scapes, which glow against the lime-hued foliage. It thrives in Canadian shade gardens across zones 3–9. Dark purple flowers appear late in the season, extending garden interest well into September.

Rich Red Detail: Deep cranberry-red petioles and scapes provide a dramatic vertical pop of colour that persists all season long.
Viridescent Transition: Leaves shift from brilliant yellow in spring to a sophisticated chartreuse by midsummer, keeping the display dynamic.
Wavy Texture: Intensely wavy leaf margins add movement and architectural interest to shaded corners and borders.
Late Summer Bloom: Dark purple flowers on tall scapes appear later than most varieties, extending garden interest well into September.

Feature	Specification
Size (H × W)	33 cm × 53 cm (13" × 21")
Hardiness Zone	3–9
Colour	Yellow to chartreuse with cranberry-red petioles
Light Requirements	Partial to full shade

Grower's Tip: To highlight the wine-red stems at their best, site this hosta where morning light can illuminate the petioles from behind. Because this variety is viridescent, its leaf colour shifts subtly over the weeks. We wait for this transition to begin at our Bécancour trial fields to confirm every plant is True to Type before it ships.
