A sport of H. 'Vanilla Cream', this
cultivar was discovered by Handy
Hatfield of Ohio in 1988 and was registered on his
behalf in 2009 by
Kevin Walek (Hosta Registrar).
It forms a small size (10 inches high by 23 inches
wide) mound of foliage which has a faint green
margin on the gold leaf. The leaves are moderately
corrugated, broadly ovate and dull on top. Lavender
flowers bloom in July.
According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "Comparing the three 'Vanilla Cream' sports, 'Heart
and Soul' lands in between, having a darker green margin
than 'Peppermint Cream', but lighter than 'Wylde Green Cream'."
