  This non-registered cultivar is one of many, many sports of 
H. 'Elegans'. As with the others, it makes a 
				large size mound of blue-green foliage except that it has a narrow 
				white marginal variegation.
 
  According to
				
							The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "...develops 
				drawstring effect. By midsummer, the white 
				margin usually tears and turns brown. Another one to avoid." 
  
						 In his comments about H. 
'Northern Halo', Zilis says that it does not develop drawstring effect. This is 
confusing in light of the Journal statement that the two cultivars are the same.
 
			  
				An article in 
			The 
				Hosta Journal (1994 Vol. 25 No. 2) states that H. 
				'Nutty Husband' and H. 'Northern 
Halo' 
				are the same plant.
