A seedling of H. 'Sea Prize',
this cultivar was registered by
Dr. Ed Elslager of Michigan in 1999. It is a
small size plant with gold foliage which bears lavender flowers
in July.
According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "The plant currently being offered on the retail market is not
this version of 'Wildfire', but Herb Benedict's plant."
Zilis is referring to H. 'Benedict's
Wild Fire'. Its name was changed from 'Wildfire' and
registered in 2010 after the publication of The Hostapedia.
