Hosta 'Lakeside Kaleidescope'

This cultivar of unidentified parentage was developed by Mary Chastain of Lakeside Acres Nursery in Tennessee and it was registered in 1994. The medium size (16 inches high) mound of slightly rippled leaves produce near white flowers from late July into August followed by viable seeds.

According to The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "Unfortunately, I've recently seen the margins on mature specimens melt out in midsummer, resulting in a sawtooth edge."

The New Encyclopedia of Hostas by Diana Grenfell (2009) states: "Vigorous and quickly forms clumps. An extremely attractive small hosta with striking color combinations...Leaves markedly widen as the plant matures."
