registered by
Dr. Dick and Jane Ward of Ohio in 1998. It is the result of a cross
between H. 'White Vision'

H. montana
macrophylla. This is a large size (24 inches high by 60
inches wide) hosta
with narrow ovate leaves and near white flowers from late June into July.
The New Encyclopedia of Hostas by
Diana
Grenfell (2009) states: "Lutescent. Color is better in light to moderate
shade for half the day. Vigorous...An arresting
specimen or border plant needing space around it to
set off its distinctive pose. Lovely when backed by
shrubs with dark green leaves."
This is one of
six cultivars developed by the Wards with the H. 'White Vision'

H. montana
