The size, color and other traits
of this cultivar indicate that H. 'Elegans'
is in its background. It was registered by
The American Hosta Society in 1986 on behalf of the
originators,
David Stone of Connecticut and Eunice V. Fisher of Wisconsin.
The giant size mound stands about 28
inches tall and spreads to 5 feet or more in width. Typical of
the type, it has thick substance and heavily corrugated leaves
that have a deep lobe at the base. Clusters of near white
flowers bloom in June and July.
According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "...was known as 'Stone's Blue'.
Eunice V. Fisher changed the name and introduced it for sale...comes
somewhere between a 'Sieboldiana' and 'Tokudama'."
