I've got a number of streaked plants I really like.

'Allegan Fog' is one that is more misty than streaked.

'Charlotte's Web' has a lot of stabilizion going on. Needs dividing big time; so I hope it still has streaked spots next summer.

'Dorset Clown' is an interesting little streaker. It's a bit faded out from too much sun as we had to remove a large ash tree to the south of it. Will find it more shade next season.

'Ghost Spirit' isn't really streaky, but more misty. Still interesting leaves. Last year they emerged this way and stayed that way all summer, but usually they are more white in the leaf centre when they emerge and get misty later.

'Ice Age Trail' used to be much more streaky. Now it's got the odd streak here and there, but is mostly a large blue hosta.

'Korean Snow' is another that's really more misty than streaked.

'Lakeside Mom' - probably my favourite streaker.

'Lakeside Reflecting Glass' - a sport of 'Lakeside Looking Glass'. This one is not quite as stable - I had a large section of it go all green last year.

'Lakeside Zinger' - has a variety of streks in the leaves
Thumb of 2016-01-30/ViolaAnn/12182c

'Pewterware' - a streaked division that sported in a friend's garden. She shared a piece with me.
Thumb of 2016-01-30/ViolaAnn/8d8371

'Rainbow's End' - I think one should call this streaky
Thumb of 2016-01-30/ViolaAnn/f03f20

'Royal Mouse Ears' - has some stabilization going on. I'm not sure how long this one will stay streaked.
Thumb of 2016-01-30/ViolaAnn/f39162

seedling of 'Neat Splash' - was given the seeds. I need to divide this 2013 seedling next summer as some eyes are streakier than others.
Thumb of 2016-01-30/ViolaAnn/717343

'Spilt Milk' - streaks on "milk" through the leaves. BTW, I have a nice variegated seedling from this one.

'Viola Ann' - a streaked plant of unknown origin which was given to me in 2010 when my garden was on an Ontario Hosta Society bus tour. It's not a fast grower and one eye stabilized, but much of it remains streaky. I finally gave it a name (after me) in 2014.
