Hosta ID - would anyone care to put a name to this variety of hosta? I bought it at the weekend from a small garden centre. It was the last one of this variety and without a label. It's probably one of the common varieties although I also bought Wolverine, which isn't a usual GC variety.
The old leaves are approx 6-7 inches across and it's overall height at the moment is about 15 inches.
I've skimmed through a websites of a couple of the big hosta nurseries but nothing has jumped out at me.

Isn't that a plant label I can see in the pot - its bent or broken, but that's what it looks like.
If you haven't looked already, Mickfield Hostas (assuming you've got some hours to spare)

Hi, I think H 'Birchwood Parky's Gold' could be another contender, grows 14 - 16 " high, indefinite spread, Derek.

I've almost decided that it is Cathedral Windows - need to wait for it to flower next year to be sure. By chance I put it down next to my older CW and the markings on the leaves are virtually identical (allowing for the difference in size) Certainly not August Moon or Parky's Gold, but thanks for the suggestions.

Possibly August Moon but I don't really know. I have August Moon that's the only reason I suggested it.
