Clarence (C.H.) Falstad, III of Michigan registered this sport of H. 'Gold Drop' in 1988. It forms a small size (10 inches high) mound of gold centered foliage with a green margin. The lavender flowers appear from late June into July.

According to The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "I cannot recommend this cultivar for landscaping purposes...it does not have a fast growth rate. Even worse is the fact that the gold leaf center develops a significant amount of spring desiccation burn. There are better choices."
