This hybrid is the result of a
cross of an unnamed seedling of
H. venusta x seedling of
H. nakaiana. It was registered in 1982 by
Robert
Savory. The small size mound grows to about 10 inches in height with a spread
of 29 inches. Its leaves are mildly corrugated, slightly wavy
and have thin substance. Medium purple flowers are borne in July. According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "It has a good growth rate and attractive flowers. It would
be useful as an edging plant."
