This non-registered cultivar is a sport of H. 'Pooh
Bear' originated by
Jerry Hadrava of Iowa.
It forms a small size (10 inches high) mound of blotchy
gold centered foliage. The lavender flowers appear from
late June into July.
According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "Like other plants infected with Hosta Virus X, 'Panda
Bear' has a kind of exotic beauty. Still, it should not
be propagated or cultivated to avoid bringing a source
of this virus into your garden."
