538900 Jack of Diamonds Savory
85
Glaucous blue-gray, nicely
textured leaves with a wide yellow margin. A sieboldiana hybrid,
but considerably Smaller than ‘Elegans’, ‘Francis Williams’,
etc. In fact, I assumed this was a tokudama when I first saw it, since
it looks like a reversed ‘Bright Lights’. White flowers.

A BRIDGEWOOD GARDENS INTRODUCTION
539600 Judy Blue Eyes Bridgewood Gardens NR
This is not really a new hosta, we sold it at the old garden center for
years. But this is the first time we’ve offered it in the catalog. A
tardiana hybrid with small blue leaves with an undulating (not
piecrusted) edge. It is not variegated, but it has a tiny, hair-line
white edge around the leaves, caused, I think, by the wax at the edge
of the leaf. Lavender flowers.

539800 June NEO Plants
1991
This is the gold centered form of
‘Halcyon’. The leaves are a rich, powdery gold, with a narrow blue
edge. The color is best in fairly bright light, tending to a muted yellow-green
in deep shade. Flowers are pale lavender. I doubt that too many would
disagree that this is one of the greatest hostas ever introduced.

June Fever J. van den Top 2004
A new sport of 'June', with shiny, rather than glaucus leaves. Like
'June' the color of the leaves will vary with the light level, from
chartreuse in low light to bright banana yellow with some morning sun.
The leaves have a narrow, dark green margin. While it comes from
'June', there is little resemblance. The color is unusual and
very striking. Pale lavender flowers.

540300 Kabitan Maekawa
1987
Some people have had difficulties growing this one,
especially in England, probably because it needs more sun than many Hostas. On the other
hand, too much sun will bleach the color from the leaf, but if you get it right,
Kabitan can be spectacular, especially in mass. Its a small plant that
tends to hug the ground, with long, narrow, wavy-edged leaves, bright yellow to yellow
green, with a narrow green edge. Flowers are purple striped. The plant is stoloniferous,
so it spreads and does not form a tight mound.
Lavender flowers.

541000 Kifukurin Hyuga ? NR
Formerly listed as kukutii 'Kifukurin Hyuga', it is now
thought to be a hybrid of mixed
parentage, but it shows its kikutii lineage in the
narrow, pointed, nicely veined foliage and its late flowering
period. The leaves are shiny, deep green with a yellow to
cream margin. Lavender flowers in the fall, after most hostas
have finished blooming. Formerly listed as k. Kifukurin.

540600 Kifukurin Ko Mame
Japan NR
We received this plant labeled kikutii 'Ko Mame' and listed it
under that name last year. We have since found that this
is the correct name for the plant. According to George Schmid
the name translates to "gold-margined, very small hosta". It has
been listed as a sport of H. gracillima, but I don't know if it
is or not. It forms a very small mound of shiny green leaves
with a wavy, creamy white margin. Very cute.
