Hosta 'Lakeside Down Sized'
 

This cultivar is a seedling of H. 'Lakeside Knickknack' which was registered by Mary Chastain of Lakeside Acres Nursery in Tennessee in 2003. It forms a miniature size (5 inches high by 16 inches wide) mound of yellow to chartreuse foliage with a very narrow creamy white marginal variegation. The leaves are slightly rippled and narrowly ovate. In August, it forms purple flowers.

The Book of Little Hostas by Kathy and Michael Shadrack (2010) says: "Will do well in almost any situation, but because it lacks substance and is therefore vulnerable to slugs and snails, this cultivar fares better planted in a container."
