| This is the Japanese name for H. 'Tokudama Aureonebulosa'. 
			 
						 An article about name changes by W. George Schmid  in 
			The 
				Hosta Journal (1996 Vol. 27 No. 2) states that, "Transliterated Japanese  names which contain substantive words do not require 
changes. For example H. 'Akebono Tokudama' listed in 
Grenfell (1996) is an 
acceptable name because Akebono means "dawn" (of the day) and is a substantive. 
Other examples of such names are H. 'Hakujima' (a place name) and H. 'Umezawa' 
(a person's name.)." |
