This sport of H. 'Blue Angel' was originated by
Chick Wasitis of Bridgewood Gardens from Maryland and registered by
Kevin Walek (Hosta Registrar) on his behalf in 2009. It forms a
large size mound
about 26 inches high with a spread of 63 inches. The green
foliage with blue-green streaks turns green (viridescent) as the season
progresses. Its leaves are lightly wavy, very lightly corrugated
and broadly ovate. Near white flowers bloom in
Maryland from late June into July.
According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "...becomes a magnificent mound of variegated foliage that
can be utilized as the focal point of any shaded garden. I,
however, cannot see any difference from 'Guardian Angel'."
