This cultivar which has
H. sieboldii in its background
was registered by
Peter Ruh of Ohio in 1995 on behalf of the
originator,
Gus Krossa of Michigan. The small size plant grows about 8
inches high with a spread of around 20 inches. Its bright yellow
leaves are slightly wavy, have thin substance and reddish purple
dots on the petioles. Pale purple flowers bloom in August. According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "...was known for many years as
Hosta clavata, but is actually
not at all similar to it.
Peter Ruh of Ohio named this for Alma Krossa, Gus Krossa's wife."
