Hosta 'Party Popper' is a small to medium-sized, clump-forming perennial known for its striking variegated foliage. It features thick, blue leaves with a distinctive flame-shaped creamy yellow center. The plant forms a mound of foliage, reaching a height of 10-15 inches and spreading up to 22 inches. Lavender flowers appear on 16-inch tall scapes in the summer, adding to its ornamental appeal.
