Hosta 'Let Faith Arise'

 

This is one of those cases where there are two hostas with the same name. Neither are currently registered with The American Hosta Society. The first one to be registered would become the "official" hosta of that name and the others would have to be renamed.

 

This large size (26 inches high by 60 inches wide), non-registered cultivar is from Bill Silvers of Georgia and it is tissue culture sport of H. 'Dorothy Benedict'. The leaves are green with a white marginal variegation. Dense clusters of near white flowers bloom from mid-June into July.

Originated by Trudy Van Wyke of Iowa, this non-registered cultivar is of unidentified parentage. It is a large size, H. 'Sieboldiana'-type hosta with blue-green foliage that has a creamy yellow streaked variegation. The leaves are broadly ovate, moderately corrugated and slightly convexly (downward) cupped.
