Hosta Millies Memoirs Silene (aka: Aucuba 'Sulphurea Marginata') AucubaThis new Shady Oaks introduction is a sport of the classic H. 'Aspen Gold'. With its H. 'Tokudama' parentage, you can expect a very slow growing plant with thick, heavily quilted and puckered blue green leaves, surrounded by a wide golden border essentially a non burning miniature H.
