This hybrid of H. 'Green Gold' × an unnamed seedling was
registered by
Robert Savory
of Savory's Gardens in Minnesota in 1983. The plant grows
into a large size hosta about 22
inches in height with a spread of 48 inches. Its very dark green
foliage is intensely puckered, heavily corrugated and slightly cupped with good
substance. Pale lavender flowers bloom from late June into July
and then set seeds.
According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "...rates highly for its shiny, dark green foliage. It
shows strong evidence of being a
Fortunei x
Sieboldiana hybrid."
The New Encyclopedia of Hostas by
Diana
Grenfell (2009) states: "Intense
puckering or even distortion of the leaves appears
only with maturity."
