I love her too. She's always pretty. Looks nice all year.

Like her with fern.

So simple and elegant. I like her too.

it's an old old classic and there's usually good reason for that

Here is mine. I recently divided it from a plant at the cabin. I have a second hosta garden which I share with my mom at our family cabin.. The hostas often travel back and forth from cabin to home.

I need to get a 'Francee'. I bought a couple last year, but threw them away. A lovely classic.

EDIT: Threw them away because they were infected.

Francee is another of my favorites too It holds up nice all season and as you say Don it really is a lovely classic. Small by some standards but growing by leaps and bound AND ... the slugs aren't eating them either

Thanks for all the nice responses,everyone! Francee just seems to last,while others seem to come and go. Phil

I'm with you, Phil. Francee just NEVER seems to look bad.

I'm a convert too. I put off getting 'Francee' since it seemed pretty ordinary, but weakened when I found a nice big specimen this spring. It looked wonderful all summer - nice dark green leaves, crisp white edges, elegant well behaved shape. I can see why so many people list it as a favourite.

mine in August

I only have a few small ones. Something to look forward to, for sure.

Definitely one of those classics you want to have.

My neighbour has a few...all beautiful...we traded and now I have a piece that went from 3 leaves last year to 11 this year...great things to come spring 2014!

The August pic is stunning, leaf lover.
