Registered by
Joanna
Kovalcsik and the originator
Ron Livingston of Michigan
in
2020,
this fast growing cultivar is a seedling of H. 'Blue
Dogwood' ×
H. 'Lemon Ice'. It is an upright, large size hosta about 21 inches high by 32 inches wide.
The
greenish-yellow foliage is slightly rippled, slightly
twisted and corrugated with deeply impressed veins. Its
leaves have white backs and extended tips. Medium
lavender flowers whose alternate petals have
translucent, ruffled margins and narrow lavender stripes
bloom in July. It sets viable seed in greenish-yellow
pods atop scapes only 18 to 19 inches tall. The
registration materials state: "All season, the
rippled and serrated leaves of this charming hybrid put
on a show. Superb substance & remains attractive in
temps near 100 degrees. From a distance, the entire
bloom scape appears lavender - unusual against the
greenish-yellow foliage...Emerges citron yellow with
glaucous blue coating; becomes greenish-yellow by July
retaining a soft blue bloom at the mid-ribs."
According to Joanna, "...Ron Livingston origination that
he gifted to me in 2011. It will be sent to TC in the
summer of 2021."
