This cultivar was developed by
Eunice V. Fisher of Wisconsin and was registered on her behalf by
Peter Ruh of Ohio in
1997. A seedling of H. 'Golden
Anniversary', it develops a giant size (32 inches high) mound of round, sometimes cupped or corrugated,
green leaves. Pale lavender flowers appear in July.
According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), this cultivar "...is another historical hosta, being
developed in the early 1960s by Eunice V. Fisher. It makes an
attractive, space eating ground cover and has the interesting
characteristic of emerging with very light green foliage, then
quickly turning dark green."
