Abstract
A new leaf variegated cultvar 'White Edge' was developed by ethyle methane sulfonate(EMS) treatment on seed of Hosta minor. Among induced leaf variegated plant, some with white color on the edge of the leaves was selected. They were cultivated via vegetative propagation. 'White Edge' was finally selected through the test of characteristics from 2003 to 2005. Assessment of botanical characteristics was conducted for three years. The major characteristic of these cultivar is that they maintain uniformly all year round. 'White Edge'(Grant No.1880) was registered to the Korea Seed and Variety Service(KSVS) for commercialization in 2007. These cultivar are useful as materials for pot or as ground cover plants.
