Hosta 'A Step Beyond'

 

Registered by Rod Lysne of Northern Grown Perennials in Wisconsin in 2019, this large size (23 inches tall by 36 inches wide) cultivar is a sport of H. 'Golden Sunburst'. It is intensely blue-green with a wide, chartreuse golden-yellow marginal variegation. The leaves are slightly rippled, dull on top seedling and bottom and are nearly round in shape. They are slightly cupped and moderately corrugated. It bears pale lavender flowers in July on scapes about 28 inches tall followed by viable seeds.

The registration materials state: "...Superior sun tolerance to its parent ('Golden Sunburst) or its grandparent ('Frances Williams'). Heavy substance ."
