Info | Hybrid of H. yingeri x 'Dorset Blue' from Greg Johnson of Marshalltown, Iowa. Intensely colored, heart-shaped foliage that comes to a distinct point. Good grower; combines the best from both parents. 'Mystic Star' scores points in every area, it's got good color, it doesn't look like a hundred other plants, it's a good solid grower in the garden, and it's an interesting hybridizing plant with good seed set. |
