In 1978, Paul Aden of New York registered
this cultivar as a hybrid of H. 'Flamboyant' × H. 'Estelle Aden'. The medium to large size plant grows
into a medium size hosta about 18 inches in
height and spreads to 50 inches in width. In the spring, the
plant is a chartreuse color but the leaf margins change to gold
by midsummer. The leaves are ovate shaped, slightly corrugated
and wavy with a slightly shiny underside. From late June into July, pale lavender flowers bloom on scapes just above the
mound. According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "Note: at one time 'Blue Moon' was
known as 'Halo'."
