This
tissue culture sport of H. 'Golden
Tiara' was registered by
Walters Gardens,
Inc. of Michigan in 1987. The dense, medium size (11 inches high) hosta may be used
for edging or a low
growing groundcover like others of the
Tiara Group. Its
foliage is ovate shaped, slightly corrugated and of thin
substance. Pale purple
flowers bloom from mid-July into August.
The New Encyclopedia of Hostas by
Diana
Grenfell (2009) states: "Slower growing than many other hostas in the Tiara
Series, making it an ideal pot plant. Winner of the
1989 Alex J. Summers
Distinguished Merit Hosta Award."
