This non-registered hosta is a sport of
H. montana
found in
Japan by
Kenji Watanabe. It forms a large size (28 inches high by 78 inches wide), vase-shaped mound
of medium green foliage a white medial (center) variegation. The
leaves are deeply veined and moderately wavy
with a moderately lobed leaf base.
One of the unique characteristics is that the
flower bud itself looks like a flower. It has open funnel shaped, very pale lavender flowers
in July with bracts on the
flower scape after the flower opens.
