Hosta 'Francee' has medium to dark green, somewhat glossy, long pointed heart
shaped leaves with clean white narrow margins.  Variegation holds up very well.  
Forms a wide, low mound of foliage making it ideal as a ground cover or specimen
plant.
 'Francee' is an old favorite that is easy to grow. Pale lavender flowers are
produced on 30" scapes in mid to late summer.
