Rick Sawyer of Maine originated this sport of H. 'Jimmy Crack Corn'. This is a large size (24 inches high), heavily rippled cultivar which is not registered. Its foliage is green with a yellow medial (center) variegation. The leaves are thick in substance and slightly corrugated. Near white flowers appear from mid-June into July.

According to The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "Since there already is a cultivar named 'Tequila Sunrise', the name 'Fernwood's Tequila Sunrise' cannot be accepted for The American Hosta Society registration purposes."
