  This plant has H. 'Fortunei Gigantea' in its background. It was 
				registered by 
			Peter Ruh of Ohio in 1998 on behalf of the originator, 
				Gladys Holly of Wisconsin. The 
large size plant grows to around 23 inches in 
				height with a spread of 54 inches. Its foliage is chartreuse 
				color in the spring but becomes very dark green as the season 
				progresses. The leaves are deeply lobed, have slight 
				corrugation, marginal ripples, downward cupping and good 
				substance. Pale lavender flowers bloom from late June into July. According to
				
							The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "...ranks as one of the earliest hosta cultivars developed 
				in the United States."
