						 This is a non-registered 
				introduction of 
				Van Wade of Ohio which is a sport of H. 'Abiqua Moonbeam'. It forms a 
				large size (20 inches high by 40 inches wide) mound of green leaves with a wide gold margin. Pale 
				lavender flowers are produced from mid-July into August.
 
 
				  According to
				The Hostapedia by 
				Mark Zilis (2009), "The difference in margin width between 'Gemini 
				Moon' and 'Abiqua Moonbeam' is noticeable, even from a 
				considerable distance." 
				
				The New Encyclopedia of Hostas by
				Diana 
				Grenfell (2009) states: "Sometimes throws all-yellow leaves which should be 
				removed to prevent reversion. Grow with ferns or blue-leaved 
				hostas...Leaf color more pronounced and leaf margin wider than 
				its parent. One of the best of the many descendants of H. 'August 
				Moon'."
