This cultivar of unidentified parentage was originated by
Gus Krossa
of Michigan and registered by
Peter Ruh of Ohio in 1997. The small size (10 inches high) plant of
H. sieboldii type foliage
produces purple flowers in August.
According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "This cultivar was long known as 'Cream Edge', but
other plants have also borne that name. One such plant (now 'Fisher's
Cream Edge') is a much larger 'Fortunei' type."
