Daily Hosta - Winter Vision

Post by redcrx »

Winter Vision is a sport of Blue Vision.

Hosta Registry - not registered
MyHostas Database - http://www.myhostas.be/db/hostas/Winter+Vision
Hosta Library - http://www.hostalibrary.org/wx/wintervision.html

"The Hostapedia" notes that it may be the same as Paradigm.


I was looking at plants still in good shape and found this one. I got it in last season.
I found a picture on the forum:

Ed - have you tested that particular plant for HVX? I'm wondering about the dark blotches on the leaves.

Found another thread comparing Winter Vision with Paradigm.

Hi Ann, no, I didn't test it. Those markings look like normal streaking to me.
