Hosta 'Drew's Standard' | Dark Green, Creamy White Margin, Collector's Cultivar, Rare

An Exclusive Hallmark of High-Contrast Elegance Hosta 'Drew's Standard' is a rare Randy Goodwin registration that has remained virtually unseen in the retail trade. A sport of the 'Bravo' seedling line, it features pointed, dark green leaves framed by wide, creamy white margins. Our stock is sourced directly from our Mother Plant — a direct division from Goodwin's own garden — grown at our Bécancour trial fields. Hardy across Canadian zones 3–9, it suits collectors and shade gardeners seeking something truly uncommon. Unrivalled Rarity: A true collector's item; these represent our debut release of this elusive cultivar, grown from originator stock. Radiant Contrast: The creamy white margins are notably wide — up to 2.5 cm (1") — creating a vivid halo effect against the satiny, dark green leaf centres. Refined Texture: Slightly shiny, broadly ovate foliage features light cupping and a delicate wave, adding a polished look to the mound. Mid-Summer Interest: Lavender-striped, tubular flowers rise on tidy green scapes throughout July, perfectly complementing the crisp variegation.

We monitor the spring flush with precision at our Bécancour trial fields, ensuring each division is True to Type with that signature radiating margin before it is cleared for shipping. Its moderate growth rate and compact size make it an ideal choice for the front of a border or a sophisticated patio container.
