This non-registered seedling
selection is from Europe. It forms a small size plant with green
foliage that has a white marginal variegation.
According to
The Hostapedia by
Mark Zilis (2009), "...represents the true form of
H. sieboldii grown in
Europe and is listed as the pod parent of both 'Harvest Dawn' and 'Hydon Gleam'."
An article about name changes by
W. George Schmid in
The Hosta
Journal (2004 Vol. 35 No.3) says, "The first change affecting the genus
Hosta is that Hosta sieboldii 'Albomarginata'
is now the correct name for the hosta originally known as
H. sieboldii 'Sieboldii' (and later by the name Hosta sieboldii 'Paxton's
Original')."
