He crossed Tokudama with sieboldiana to produce its signature deeply cupped, round leaves. Those leaves cup so deeply they hold small pools of water after summer rain. Hardy from zones 3 to 9, it performs reliably in Canadian shade gardens nationwide. The American Hosta Growers Association named it Hosta of the Year in 2014.
