Originated in Japan, this non-registered cultivar is of unidentified parentage but has
H. sieboldii spathulata in its background.
The Hostlists.org website describes this as a good hosta
for a trough garden which should indicate that it is a
miniature or small size plant.
According to
The Hostapedia by
Mark Zilis (2009), "...I've never seen any plant labeled that."Mikiko Lockwood in an article on The Hosta Library titled,
A Little About Japanese Hosta Terms defines the term hime as small, mini, dwarf or princess.
