Hosta 'Little Willie'
 

 

A miniature size (2.75 inches high by 16 inches wide) hosta, this cultivar of unidentified parentage was originated by Wm Zumbar of Ohio and was registered on his behalf by Registrar, Kevin Walek in 2009. It is a light green hosta with white marginal variegation and green dots in the center. The leaves are narrowly ovate, slightly rippled and wavy with thin substance. Purple flowers bloom in July.

According to the registration information, "...center changes to light green as season progresses..."

The Book of Little Hostas by Kathy and Michael Shadrack (2010) says: "A difficult plant to site. It needs some morning sun to look its best, but too much light will hasten the darkening of the leaves. Grows taller in deep shade. Best in a container of mixed cultivars."
