This cultivar
of unidentified parentage was originated by
Dr. Ralph (Herb) Benedict of Michigan and registered on his behalf by
Kevin Walek (Hosta Registrar) in 2009. It is a medium size (14 inches high by 40
inches wide) plant with foliage that is heavily
corrugated, broadly ovate and
slightly rippled.
Lavender flowers appear in July on scapes about 24
inches tall.
According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "This Herb Benedict introduction appears very
similar to 'Wide Brim' and
could be the same."
