Jerry
Hadrava of Iowa is the originator of a large number
of hostas which were included in his "Rosedale"
series. Several of his plants had a seedling he named
"RD-998" as either the pollen or seed parent. To our
knowledge, he never named or registered this prolific hosta outside of his breeding program. We have a
list of hostas that have this one in their
background. Hybrids of this
plant include H. 'Rosedale
Houdini'.
