Zooming toward the top of the popularity poll is this tetraploid sport of H. 'Francee', with a much wider, pure white margin...one of the most distinctive hostas. The 3' wide clumps are topped with medium-lavender flowers in early summer. The first plant released sold for $875 at the 1992 American Hosta Society Convention!
