This small size (12 inches high) hosta is the result of a
cross between H. venusta
×
H.
'August Moon'. It was
introduced by
Ken Anderson of Minnesota in 1977 and is a great plant for the front of
the bed or border. The chartreuse leaves are not variegated and
little or no waviness. It has
bell-shaped, white flowers that are fertile and borne from late June
into July on 14 inch scapes followed by viable seeds.
The New Encyclopedia of Hostas by
Diana
Grenfell (2009) states: "Tolerates sun. Easy to grow and soon exceeds its
registered dimensions. A useful edging hosta. Has produced many sports and
seedlings."
