Hosta 'Pomp and Circumstance'
 

 

One of the many sports of H. 'Sum and Substance', this is a non-registered cultivar from Bill Meyer of New Jersey. It varies from the mother plant by having light green foliage with a gold marginal variegation. The leaves are moderately corrugated, have deeply lobed margins, are cupped both up and down and have a long, distinct tip. It has thick substance which  makes it resistant to slug damage.  In late July and into August, it produces large pale lavender flowers on four foot tall scapes.
