Dr. Dick and Jane Ward of Ohio registered
this seedling of H. 'Pin Stripe Sister' in 1998. The large size
plant grows to 26 inches in height with a spread of around 66
inches. It has green foliage with a yellow to creamy white
marginal variegation. The leaves are ovate, moderately wavy and
come to a long point at the tip. Pale lavender flowers bloom in
May.
Dr.
Dick and Jane Ward have named several of their hostas in
honor of close relatives. They let me know that, "H.
'Splendid Sarah'
is named after our daughter, who is the mother of
granddaughters after whom H. 'Kaitlyn'
and H. 'Emma
are named. H. 'Lauren's
Delight' is named after a daughter-in-law, and she
is the mother of Alison, of H.'
Alison'. H.
'Magnificent
Michelle' is named after a daughter-in-law."
