An H. 'Tokudama' hybrid, this
cultivar was registered by
Russ O'Harra of Iowa in 1986. It forms a
medium to large size mound with near white flowers blooming from late June into July.
According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "I cannot see any differences between 'Fleeta Brownell
Woodroffe' and 'Tokudama Flavocircinalis'...The person, Fleeta
Brownell Woodroffe, authored an article entitled, "Plantainlilies
- Bold, Profuse Flowering and They Do Thrive in the Shade" that
appeared in the March, 1933 issue of Better Homes and Gardens."

An article by
Warren I. Pollack in
The
Hosta Journal (2020 Vol. 51 No. 1) titled
Doppelgänger Hostas: Fancy Name for
Look-alike Hostas, included a long list of hostas
which various hostaphiles, published articles or other sources have
indicated "look" the same. Some of these are, in fact, the same
plant with two or more different names. Others are hostas that vary
in some minor trait which is not immediately discernable to the
casual observer such as seasonal color variations, bloom traits, ploidy, etc. So, as Warren mentions, hostaphiles may differ as to the
plants listed but then, their opinions are based on visual observations and interpretations. |
