The pictured Hosta images are digitally altered fakes or A.I.-generated fakes and are not real plants, so no one will have Hosta varieties that look like that. Hosta do come in a few leaf colors, but are limited to various shades of green, blue-green, yellow-green or golden yellow, and some are marked with white or striped on the inside or outside of the leaf. They do not have leaf colors of orange, pink, red, or purple. Unfortunately, unscrupulous people online attempt to sell or convince gardeners that wildly-colored varieties of common garden plants exist, when they are manipulated images.

Hostas are also rarely grown from seed. Instead, they are sold as divisions, since seedlings would probably not retain the unique traits of the parent plant. For example, seed from a blue-green-leaved Hosta variety with white edges to the leaf might produce seedlings that are plain green or solid blue-green with no variegation.
