Hosta 'Fuiri Iwa'
 

Originated in Japan, this non-registered cultivar is a sport of H. longipes. It forms a small size hosta with narrowly ovate leaves that come to a tip. The foliage is green with white streaked variegation.

Mikiko Lockwood in an article on The Hosta Library titled, A Little About Japanese Hosta Terms defines the term fuiri as variegated and the term iwa as rock, Iwa Gibōshi or H. longipes..
