This cultivar has H. 'Sieboldiana' in its background. It was originally introduced in the early 1960s and was registered by The American Hosta Society on behalf of the originator, Wayside Gardens of Ohio in 1986.

The plant forms a large size mound with grayish green foliage that is heavily corrugated and has good substance. Near white flowers bloom from mid-June into July.

According to The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "The foliage of 'June Beauty' tends to be narrower than typical H. 'Sieboldiana'-types, somewhat similar to H. seiboldiana 'Mira' in that regard."
