InfoAn 'August Moon' sport with a 'Tattoo'-like pattern. Different.
Darker green band between leaf center and the margin similar to H. 'Tattoo' but on a larger leaf.
Unique sport from H. 'August Moon' with a "watermark" type pattern (darker green band between the leaf center and the border) on the leaf very similar to H. 'Tattoo'. Although 'Watermark' has been difficult in tissueculture production it has proven to be a vigorous grower and plants offered are a very good size. Topped with pale lavender flowers in July.
