There are hybrids and there are species. Both can give rise to
sports. If a species sports, be it in the garden or in the wild, I
would strongly suggest to let it keep its species name like H
montana 'Mountain Snow' , H montana 'Choko Nishiki' ( wrongly
renamed H montana ' On Stage' )or H kikutii 'Red Neck Heaven'
This despite the fact that according to the rules the cultivar name
only is sufficient . Leaving out the species name omits a lot of
usefull information.
