  This hybrid of H. 'Birchwood Parky's Gold' ×  H. 'Golden Tiara', this cultivar grows to 11 
				inches high by 24 inches wide. It was registered by 
				Frank Nyikos of Walnut Grove Nursery in Indiana in 
				1998. The cupped foliage is moderately corrugated and nearly 
round. Pale lavender, 
tubular 
				flowers bloom in July on scapes up to 22 inches tall. 
				
							 The New Encyclopedia of Hostas by
				Diana 
				Grenfell (2009) states: "A superb small hosta...Equally good in the front 
of the border...Leaves have a fancied resemblance to a coffee spoon rather than 
a teaspoon for which the plant is named." 
				
				The Book of Little Hostas by 													Kathy and Michael Shadrack 
							(2010) says: "Grows well in light shade. Ideal for the larger tray 
				or trough."
