Hosta 'Edwin Bibby'

The most unusual striping of this plant occurred on Hosta 'Summer Fragrance' in the UK and was spotted by Mr John Deardon a member of the British Hosta Hemerocallis Society.

John, of Helsby in Cheshire named the sport after his grandson and the plant should be available in quantity in the next couple of years from specialist hosta nurseries.

The British Hosta and Hemerocallis Society exists to foster interest in the cultivation of these plants and published an annual bulletin and newsletters as well as providing a forum for the exchange of ideas and information and the organisation of visits to nurseries and gardens.
