I'm really not sure about this one... I had purchased it from Lowe's when I got Guacamole and was undecided about keeping it because it's very small leaves...

The garden center person said you know how a large a Hosta will be according to how large the leaves are.

I decided to keep it because I need something that would stay small enough not to block the sprinkler system.

The tag says it is 'Fire and Ice'.
But the pot says it is 'Rainforest Sunrise'

The leaves are thick and feel papery stiff.


I don't think it's either one of those. 😏

That's the downside to buying from local stores. So many tags have been wrong.

It's so hard to know for sure what it is... I want to know so I can take care of it properly.






Rainforest sunrise is supposed to be bumpy. This is smooth as glossy like crepe paper.
