This cultivar is
an
open-pollinated seedling of H. 'Sea Sprite' and is part of the "Sea
Series" of hostas from
Mildred Seaver of Massachusetts. It was registered in 1981 as a plant
that grows about 21 inches high with a spread of about 43
inches. The green colored foliage has regular ripples which
become more irregular as the plant ages. Its foliage is dull on
top, moderately corrugated and has average substance with red
dotted petioles. Medium purple flowers bloom from August into
September. According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "Though attractive at all stages of growth, the heavily
rippled juvenile form is the most desirable and can be
maintained by dividing every two to three years."
