First pic ... Hosta is 3 years old....light coloured flower scape....so pretty.

Revolution is a beauty....which I do not have. I was pleased to note that I have two of Revolution's sports.

One is American Hero. PPAF.
The other is Color Revolt, which the MYHOSTAS.BE says:
"This attractive sport of 'Revolution' exhibits very dark green leaves with a medium green center. It's simply exquisite in deep shade! Quite vigorous and gets larger than 'Revolution'. Tetraploid- strong stems and thick leaves. (Don has never seen a slug hole in the leaves.)
By the way, the flowers on this one are awesome- an abundance of dark purple blooms held a foot above the foliage on nice, strong scapes. "

And its photo taken in June. Registered 2010 by Don Rawson. One of my treasures:

I saw this Revolution sporting at von Trapp Greenhouse. I liked the solid dark green color of the sport and asked if they would divide a piece out for me. They were happy to oblige.

Jo, that is a beautiful picture of Revolution with it's flowers. I just bought this one this year. I love the speckled leaves.

I have both Revolution and look-alike Clifford's Comet. CC has been in the garden a lot longer, and seems to be more stable than Revolution. It's put out a few green eyes, but everyone I know with a mature Revolution says it's constantly sporting green eyes. CC has a wider dark green edge than Revolution, otherwise they look like twins. The photo is Clifford's Comet.

The green sport is pretty. Bet it's tough, too. I saved a green sport of Clifford's Stingray, and it never needs extra water.

Here is a streaked revolution that I found at a local nursery last year. I 'be had Revolution for about 10 years and it is finally putting out an all green eye. I hope it's the only one. But from what I've heard it likely continue.

Other than removing green sports on a regular basis, I do like plant.

soo,,,,does the plain dark green sport have a name ??

or do we just call it "Green Revolution" ??

I actually really like this plant....very dark and a very good grower

Mine reverted completely to Green Revolution,and that's the way it is now. I haven't seen another 'normal' one to replace it,so I will just live with it. Phil

Matter of fact, that's what I've been calling mine for the past few years, and because it is not a cultivar in and of itself in the trade but only exists under a garden name, the name should be put in double quotation marks, like you correctly did!

My experience is like yours, a great grower and quite the looker in its own right. I'm rather fond of it and it's proven to be a fairly good seller for me in my yard sales.
