This is a sport of Fragrant Bouquet. This plant was separated from the main plant when I took off a solid piece. This plant actually looks better than the original.

Re: Daily Hosta #2 - Color Parade
Looks like yours has some really nice streaking so it will probably hold that coloring for quite a while Thanks for sharing.

Update for Color Parade
Here it is in 2012 Late in the 2012 season the plant was split into a solid "yellow" version and the original Color Parade.
Both plants were potted.
Here is Color Parade in a pot for the 2013 season.

Re: Daily Hosta #2 - Color Parade
I thought this had gone all yellow but I found some streaking on it today. I need to take the solids off.
I have two other large pots of this plant but they are all yellow - it's a nice yellow so I will be planting one in my corner garden.

I did have a recent photo of one of those other solid pots in, what will be, its new home - when I dig a hole to plant it. That's 'Seducer' above it, to the left is 'Gone with the Wind' and further left is 'Winter Snow'. The "blue" to the right is 'Awakening Angel'.

Re: Daily Hosta #2 - Color Parade
I separated the solids from the 'Color Parade' and ended up with 3 pots of solids.
It's growing in my "Fragrant Bouquet" group (that also has some streakers not related). Same group a little further away - that's 'Guacamole' on the left (a little small this season), 'Paradise Sunshine' bottom/right corner, 'Fragrant Dream' top/right corner. The small dark plant with the white edge just above and left is a clump of 'Seventh Heaven' that looks like it's lost its streaking and there's a small 'Fascination' just to the right of 'Seventh Heaven'. The yellow toward the top/left corner is 'The Shining' (it never gets very big). The streaker on the left is 'Savannah Supreme'.
