528400 Ginko Craig Craig  1986 
Pointed, narrow lance shaped leaves of green, edged and streaked with white. When the plant matures, which can take a number of years, the leaves are very different and it doesn't look like the same plant. Leaves get larger, with a bit of corrugation, and the margin gets wider. Multiplies rapidly, excellent as a ground cover or edger. Purple flowers.

529100 Gold Standard P. Banyai  1976
This is simply one of the best hostas ever introduced. The foliage is unremarkable as it emerges, medium green with a slightly darker edge, but the center gradually lightens to a beautiful bright golden yellow, while the dark green edge holds. A sport of ‘Hyacinthina’, it is a vigorous grower and multiplies rapidly. It has the typical Fortunei shape and size, maturing to a graceful spreading mound about 3’ across. Too much light and the yellow fades to white in the summer, but with the right exposure, the color is hard to beat. Lavender flowers.

533100 Guacamole Solberg  1994
Frankly, I didn’t know why this plant was so popular until I saw it in a large clump. If you see it as a small plant, the coloring can be a bit subtle and, to me, it doesn't show itself as well as when it gets big.  It really is quite impressive. It is a sport from ‘Fragrant Bouquet’ found in tissue culture. It has rounded light green leaves with a dark green margin. Flowers are light lavender and fragrant, not as large as plantaginea, but flared open, up to 3" wide.

533400 Gypsy Rose Winterberry Farms NR
This is an interesting new sport from Jim Anderson at Winterberry Farms tissue culture lab.  It is a sport of ‘Striptease’, and when young, the two are indistinguishable.  As ‘Gypsy Rose’ matures, however, it stays considerably smaller than ‘Striptease’ and, in my opinion, has better, cleaner color.  It has the same dark green margin, while the center of the leaf changes from lighter green to creamy yellow with the distinctive narrow white line between the center and margin.  Lavender flowers.
