Is this normal for Golden Meadows? Don't remember seeing it before.

Looks like there is a streak on two leaves. Here's a closeup

What do ya think?

ALL hosta.. but for the species.. are inherently unstable ...

enjoy it.. there isnt much you can do with one leaf ...

if it were a whole division.. you might be able to divide it off ...

but odds are.. it wont be back next year ... and i would hate to set it back.. cutting it off for no reason ...

i dont recall ... is a third color feasible ???? .. i think there are a very few with such ... which would mean.. the odds are really long on accomplishing anything ... by digging it up ...

Thanks, Ken. I defin don't want to dig it, divide it, etc. I'll keep an eye on it in the year or two coming up and see what it does. I was just more curious as to if this was something that was typical for Golden Meadows or not.
