Mark,
Yes, someone posted earlier that it is probably JOHN HOEHNER. The name
is too close to be otherwise. One letter off and probably copied
without the use of magnifiers. Again, It was introduced by Long's
Gardens for Joseph Hoage in 1995. It is a pale blue (ie: almost white)
with dark blue beards. Portrait of Larrie X Song of Norway.
