Francee

Hosta "Francee" review

Hosta Francee has the heart-shaped leaves, which are of dark green colour. The venation of the leaves is strongly pronounced, leaves are wrinkled. Bordering is snow-white from the very beginning of the foliage unfolding in the spring and to the end of the season. Prefers shadow or penumbra. Excellent unpretentious variety. Leaf is about 21 x 13 cm, of medium density. The scape is dark green with a white contour. Narrow funnel-shaped flower is pale lavender, the peduncle has the height of 70 cm. Bloom period is from June to August. This hosta withstands all kinds of climate, except the hottest, because the color of the leaves burns out to a pale olive-green under the baking sun.
