In 1994,
Mary Chastain of
Lakeside Acres Nursery in Tennessee registered this cultivar as
a cross between H. 'Fascination' × H. montana. The mound is medium size (17 inches high
by 44 inches wide) with
slightly rippled, smooth, ovate shaped leaves. Its foliage becomes
more yellow as the season progresses. Medium lavender
flowers are borne in July but they do not set seed.
The New Encyclopedia of Hostas by
Diana
Grenfell (2009) states: "Leaves gradually assume a bright yellow glow, but
the variegation can sometimes disappear."
There is an all
golden-yellow sport of this cultivar named H.
'Golden
Cha Cha'.
