  An article about H. 
'Sheila Macqueen' by Warren I. Pollock in 
			The 
				Hosta Journal (2002 Vol. 33 No. 1) states that, "This 
hosta was registered as H. 'Sheila Maqueen'...However, the spelling of the 
family name is incorrect...The correct spelling is Macqueen...The 
correction has been made in the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum registry (of 
The American Hosta Society )...Sheila Macqueen is a world-renowned English 
floral arranger who lives in Herfordshire, U.K....one of the first professional 
flower arrangers to use hosta leaves...there is a permanent tribute at Long 
Branch in Millwood, Virginia, called "The Sheila Macqueen Gardens at Historic 
Long Branch"..."
