This is another of those confusing
name situations that are fairly common in the world of hostas. According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "The registered name of this sport
of 'September Sun' is 'Clifford's
Polar Moon' but it has been marketed simply as the cultivar,
'Polar Moon'. More correctly, it should be used as a trade name,
i.e. H. POLAR MOON." According to
The New
Encyclopedia of Hostas by
Diana Grenfell and
Michael Shadrack (2009),
states that H. 'Polar Moon' is a sport of H. 'August Moon'. (But,
Zilis says otherwise)
