This
tissue culture sport of H. 'Paul's Glory' was
originated by
Mark Zilis of Illinois and registered by
Peter Ruh of Ohio in 1997. It grows
into a large size hosta about 20 inches in height and 4
feet wide with leaves that start chartreuse and turn to bright
yellow as the season progresses. The pale lavender flowers bloom
from mid-July into August. According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "...originated as a tissue culture sport that I sent to Peter Ruh for observation. Pete and I named
it on August 5, 1993 for his hometown, Chesterland, Ohio. In the
landscape, it makes an excellent complement to 'Paul's Glory'
and 'Wheaton Blue'."
