Introduced by
Dr. Ralph
(Herb) and
Dorothy Benedict and registered by J. & E. Stratton in 1996. It is a
self-pollinated H. 'Dorset Blue'
seedling with thick leaf substance which forms a small, dense
mound of foliage. It has medium lavender flowers in mid-July to
August.
The Hosta Handbook by
Mark Zilis (2000), says that this plant falls into a category of
"cultivars that exhibit many
Tardiana traits but are
not a part of
Eric Smith's original group."
