Are hostas ever known to sport habitually.....?

12 years ago

...And when I ask that, I mean one particular individual hosta that has had more than one cultivar emerge from it, not a variety in general. It's a silly question, maybe, but maybe it's not; after reading the very interesting Hadspen White post pertaining to hybridizing(Thank you Moc and Ken), I got to wondering if anyone had ever heard of or owned one that has thrown multiple and different sports. I've surfed the net for answers, but found nothing yet.

I figured that this particular forum, with all the extraordinarily experienced hosta growers/breeders/introducers we have that frequent our threads and interact on the site, might be the place to ask.

Just a newbie's curiosity, and thanks,
