This seedling of H. 'Neat Splash' was registered by
Wm and Eleanor Lachman of Massachusetts in 1989. A small
plant, it grows to about 9 inches high with a spread of 28
inches. The leaves are moderately wavy, smooth textured and have
average substance. It bears funnel shaped, deep purple flowers
from mid-July into August but is sterile so does not set seeds.
The Book of Little Hostas by Kathy and Michael Shadrack
(2010) says: "Grows well in good light. The regular shape makes it
ideal for containers and troughs when small and for raised beds and shady
gardens when mature."
The New Encyclopedia of Hostas by
Diana
Grenfell (2009) states: "A superb rock garden, edging, or ground cover
hosta. Probably too vigorous to grow with other small and
miniature hostas in a container."
"Plant
occasionally develops streaky variegation."
