Roger Cornitensis of Belgium
and registered on his behalf by AHS/G. H.
Alley in

a
sport of H. 'Elegans'.

variegation. The broadly ovate leaves are slightly
twisted, moderately wavy, slightly rippled and slightly
shiny on top. "Corrugation occurs mainly in the darker
tissue and often a third color appears between center
and margin colors."
White flowers with pale lavender
interior stripes and translucent margins bloom in June
on scapes 28 to 32 inches tall followed by viable seeds.
The registration materials state: "...Large upright
clump of wavy puckered leaves. The blue-green margins
provide bright contrast for the creamy yellow
centers...center changes to moderate yellow green (147B)
with moderate olive green (137A) margins by early July."
