This hybrid of H. longipes x H. pycnophylla was registered in 1998 by Peter Ruh of Ohio on behalf of the originator, Hajime Sugita of Japan. It grows into a large size hosta about 18 inches high by 32 inches wide. The medium green leaves are medium green, have purple-red petioles and are heavily rippled with good substance.
