It is a small hosta with exceptional vigour. Leaves emerge bright chartreuse and ripen to a zesty golden-yellow with narrow dark green margins. Morning sun intensifies the golden hues and encourages a more robust growth habit. It is hardy across Canadian zones 3–9 and is ideal for the front of a border or a decorative trough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRadiant Colour Transition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Leaves emerge bright chartreuse before ripening into golden-yellow, sharply defined by narrow, dark green margins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExceptional Vigour:\u003c\/strong\u003e A fast grower that quickly forms a dense, wavy mound — often outpacing other small varieties in the garden.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSun-Loving Personality:\u003c\/strong\u003e Unlike many hostas, this cultivar thrives in morning sun, which intensifies its golden hues and encourages robust growth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLate Summer Vibrancy:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium purple flowers appear in August, standing in beautiful contrast to the bright, slightly shiny foliage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFeature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize (H × W)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18 cm × 38 cm (7\" × 15\") — can grow larger\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness Zone\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3–9\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGolden-yellow centre with thin, dark green margins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLight Requirements\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMorning sun to partial shade\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrower's Tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Site Hosta 'Dinner Mint' where it can soak up morning sun with consistently moist roots.
