This cultivar was registered in
1997 by Peter Ruh of Ohio. It is a medium size plant that changes from gold in the spring
to green as the summer progresses. Medium purple, bell-shaped flowers bloom
in August. According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "Its foliage shape, wide, flat petioles and
bell-shaped, purple flowers in August show the relationship
between 'Golden Plum' and 'Decorata'."

"Plant is similar to the parent." Schmid cites "Lewis" as the originator
which we interpret to mean
Alan Lewis
of England.
