Hosta 'X-rated'
 

This sport of H. 'X-ray' was registered by Ron Simmering of Iowa in 2001. The small size (7 inches high by 10 inches wide) plant has very narrowly elliptic shaped leaves with average substance. Its bright purple flowers in August.

According to The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), this cultivar "...improves on its mother plant, 'X-ray', by the fact that its white center remains so throughout the growing season."

The Book of Little Hostas by Kathy and Michael Shadrack (2010) says: "Very ribbon-like...The leaf center remains white throughout the season. Also good for a rockery, tub or mixed planting."
