 This sport of H. 'Sum
and Substance' was registered by
Walters Gardens, Inc.
in 1997. It forms a large (28 inches high) mound of foliage that is
deeply lobed at the base, cupped up and down, and moderately
corrugated with thick substance. The leaves are light green with a thin, creamy white margin.
In late July into August, this plant has large pale lavender flowers
on 4 foot tall scapes.
According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis
(2009), "...I have come to like 'Parhelion'
more and more."
Similar cultivars include H. 'Winter Snow'.
 In case you wondered, a
parhelion is: "A bright spot sometimes appearing on either side of
the sun, often on a luminous ring or halo."
