    Purchased this one decades ago - didn't last long in my garden as I threw it away. Records show that it had Pollock's Pucker.
  • Talking about Hosta 'Joby', ViolaAnn wrote:
    Hosta 'Joby' is a 2010 seedling from Hosta 'Déja Blu'. I had regarded it a very nice blue seedling but didn't have any plans to register it until a friend lost her husband. I showed her several seedlings that might be named in his honour, and this is the one she chose, saying that they both liked blue. 'Joby' was his nickname. My plant is smaller than it was because it has been divided to share with several friends.

    Additional information about Silver Shadow is that its parentage is from Devon Green, and before that, Halcyon. Some have described Silver Shadow as a "green Halcyon". Also, the young plants have narrow leaves, which later expand to more closely resemble its Halcyon parentage. Its hybridizer is Myerscough College, but the year is unknown.
    Silver Shadow has lavender flowers.

    This is early Spring colouration (usually too cold to come out and check hostas) so missed this one for 20 years!
    According to Mark Zilis in his wonderful Hosta Handbook, this cultivar, with its unusually splotched early foliage, is either "one of the most beautiful hostas ever developed or something that induces itching"
    The splotching "is not caused by a virus but is a genetic trait". There are in fact a couple of seedlings that exhibit this characteristic.
    Cynthia changes to all green after a few weeks
