Introduction to hosta 'Sunnyside Up' (Carlson)

'Discover Sunnyside Up' an extraordinary creation by renowned hosta hybridizer Monty Carlson of Minnesota. This unique hosta captures the essence of beauty with its stunning chartreuse leaves. Over time, with exposure to morning sun or high filtered afternoon light, the foliage gracefully transitions into a dazzling golden shade, adding a vibrant touch to any garden.

Distinctive features of this treasure

What sets 'Sunnyside Up' apart is the enchanting underside of its leaves. Each leaf is adorned with a subtle white powder coating, known as "bloom," that adds a layer of sophistication and elegance. Its captivating appearance makes it a favorite among hosta enthusiasts and collectors who value rare and beautiful plants.

Clarifying potential confusion

It's important to note that this plant should not be confused with another hosta named 'Sunny Side Up,' which was introduced by Plant Delights Nursery, Inc. in North Carolina. While they share similar names, each has distinct characteristics and origins. Ensure you are choosing the right variety for your collection.
