 This unruly, large size (30 inches high by 35
inches wide), blue-green plant was registered by
Dr. Kevin Vaughn of Massachusetts in 1988 as a hybrid of H. 'Blue Boy' × H. 'Polly
Bishop'.
It bears near-white to pale lavender flowers from late June into July
followed by viable seeds.
According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), this cultivar "...has the look of a
Sieboldiana with
a slightly better growth rate. It is certainly worth considering
as a background plant or very large ground cover".
The New Encyclopedia of Hostas by
Diana
Grenfell (2009) states: "Much faster growing than most blue-leaved
hostas...Flower buds are level with the top of the foliage. Large bracts cluster
round the raceme. Leaf color remains an unusually rich, dark blue-green if grown
in full shade all day."
