This sport of H. 'True
Blue' was originated by
Dr. David Reath and
registered by
Roy Klehm of Illinois in 1998. It forms a large size (15 inches high by 30 inches wide) mound of blue-green foliage with a narrow
yellow marginal variegation. The leaves are slightly rippled,
broadly ovate and shiny on top. It has near white flowers from mid-June to July.
The New Encyclopedia of Hostas by
Diana
Grenfell (2009) states: "Not suitable for containers. Slow to moderate
growth rate...Considerably smaller than its parent
with a shiny upper leaf surface."
