  Jim Dishon of Michigan registered this hybrid of H. 'Beatrice' ×  H. 'Green 
			Fountain' in 1993. The large size (23 inches high) mound has moderately wavy 
			foliage with a thin tip. Purple flowers bloom from mid-August into September. According to
				The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), this plant "...is another cultivar that holds true 
			to its name
						i.e. being a fountain like mound of gold foliage. It has 
			an excellent rate of growth and would make an ideal plant for the 
			center of an island bed." 
			 
				The 
				Hosta Journal,  (2006 Vol. 37 No. 2),  in an article 
about flower characteristics stated that this cultivar has "...deep 
reddish-purple flower buds on glaucous scapes..."
