This
non-registered cultivar of unidentified parentage is from
Dr. Ralph (Herb) Benedict of Michigan. It is a large size
plant with corrugated green foliage. According to
The Hostapedia by
Mark Zilis (2009), "This
hosta has also been known as 'Samson', but the published
name (ibid) is 'Sam Son'. It was on display at the 1988
National Convention of
The American Hosta Society in Michigan (also labeled there as 'Sam
Son')." There is an image of
a plant labeled 'Samson' on the
Hosta Library.
