Hosta 'Pink Panther'
 

Alex Malloy of New York registered this sport of H. 'Island Charm' in 1998. It grows into a medium size hosta about 13 inches in height with a spread of 3 feet. The ovate shaped leaves have purplish red petioles and average substance. Its purple flowers bloom in July.

According to The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "...differs from  'Island Charm' by its streaked and mottled, rather than white, leaf center. In the specimens I've seen, there has been a tendency to revert back to 'Island Charm' or 'Green Lama', the all-green form. With a little maintenance, however, this can be easily avoided."
