There is an image of this
cultivar on the
Hosta Library. From the photo on the HL website, it appears to be a large
size hosta with narrow, pointed, slightly wavy light green leaves and
creamy white marginal variegation. This non-registered cultivar was
originated by
Gunther Stark
of Iowa. According to
The Hostapedia by
Mark Zilis (2009), this name has a confusing history. It was used as a
trade name in the form SILVER EDGE in the 1970s for
marketing H. 'Undulata Albomarginata'. It was
also briefly used as a trade name for
H. sieboldii.
Zilis makes no mention of a plant from
Gunther Stark as
noted in the MyHostas database.
