Info | Better substance, more sun tolerance and much better vigor than its parent, H. 'Island Charm'. Tetraploid 'Island Charm'. White center, wide green margin. Vigorous, sun-tolerant and a good multiplier. Lavender flowers on pink scapes in mid-summer. Bob Solberg's sport of 'Island Charm' with much wider dark green margins, making it a much better grower; differs from 'Xanadu' for its tendency of the green margin to streak into the white leaf center |
