Alex J. Summers Distinguished Merit Hosta 1999 (Kevin Vaughn).
Medium green, multicolored streaked and/or margined.
Extremely variable. Lavender flowers.
Yellow streaks turn white as season progresses, good substance, corrugation,
Fine old breeder from recent Summers Award winner Kevin Vaughn. He chose this as his Summers Award plant because of its significance in the history of hosta hybridizing. Still a good plant to base a breeding line on, not a bad looker either. Bushels of streaked seedlings.
