Charles Isaacs of Moongate Farm in
North Carolina registered this
sport of H. 'Piedmont Gold' in 1999. It grows to 18 inches tall
with a spread of 49 inches. The leaves are broadly oblong to
ovate in shape, slightly rippled and have thick substance. It
bears near white flowers in late June.
According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "...serve as superior substitutes for 'Frances Williams' in
the landscape since they offer similar, large size mounds of foliage
without spring desiccation burn in the gold margin."
