'Golden Meadows' is a bit of a rogue in as much as it's a Hosta that likes the sun. However, it still mustn't be allowed to get thirsty. Way back in 1992, Reinier van Elderen was tending to his crop of Hosta siebolidiana 'Elegans', when he noticed something strange - one of the plants was producing multicolored leaves on one side. He isolated the variegated leaves by splitting the plant, and continued to grow the parts separately. The variegated plant grew well, and at the end of the season he was able to devide it again. After a couple of years and with a small number of sucessful, stable divisions, Reinier took some of these plants to the tissue culture laboratory for mass propagation. But all the plants produced by that process reverted to the original 'Elegans' coloring. Not deterred from persevering with his impressive find, Reinier continued propagation by more traditional means - root division. It therefore took 13 years to build up enough stock for commercial introduction. You can see now why tissue culture is the preferred method! The upside to this long process is that Reinier has had 13 years to observe the variety and be satisfied with its stability and health. WE ALSO OFFER THIS GREAT HOSTA AS A GROWING PLANT FOR 2010.
