My information is, that both these Hostas are Patent Applied For. That
is , I believe , a seperate process and does not preclude vegitive
propigation. My understanding is , also, that this usually does not lead
to actual patenting. If on the other hand the plants are Name
Trademarked, that means you can not, (unless you have purchased the
plants directly from them), sell the plant under that name. You
should not, in that case propigate more for sale. Clarence Falstead can,
I am sure correct, me in the places I am wrong.
