This cultivar of unidentified parentage was registered in 1997 by Mary Chastain of Lakeside Acres Nursery in Tennessee. The medium size (13 inches high) mound has corrugated foliage of good substance. Near white flowers bloom from mid-July to mid-August.

According to The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "Its fast growth rate and striking foliage colors give 'Lakeside Spellbinder' tremendous value."
