Re: Question on H.Kathryn Lewis


Hi Tim,
         I may be wrong, but I remember asking about it at Chelsea, where the Bowdens had it in their display the year I was there. It was not really available yet then, as the nurseryman whose plant it was (also named Lewis, I believe) was keeping it under wraps. Somehow it got into TC against his wishes, leading to Mike Shadrack's article on Hosta piracy. Wasn't it supposed to be a seedling of 'Halcyon' that sported?

or 'Katherine' Lewis. In the library photo description it states this plant is a H.Halcyon sport, and the Lemke file says it's a sport of June. Which is correct? TIA!
