While on a jaunt down to southern Ontario I called up Lynn Bisschop of Shades of Green in Aylmer and shyly asked if I could come for a tour of the garden and a peek at 'Quiet Waters'. A super nice lady; she not only gave me a tour but also permission to take a few photos to post.
Wow is all I can say. 'Quiet Waters' is an amazingly-lovely hosta in person and is definitely a stand out!
It's an OP seedling from a streaked pod on 'Aurora Borealis'. The substance is surprisingly thick for so much white.
Lynn has registered it and will be putting it into tissue culture this year. Cross your fingers and toes that it takes in tissue culture. If all goes well, it may be available in 2012. It's rather slow growing so if fails in TC, we will have to be very rich and line up for a piece of it, I'm afraid. :-)
