Francee Hosta is a shade-loving herbaceous perennial primarily grown for their foliage. The glossy heart shaped basal leaves are deep green with wide a creamy-white margin and deep veins. The bell-like pale lavender flowers raise up in terminals from the rootstalk above the mound in mid-summer attracting butterflies and pollinators. Best bloom in partial sun and moist well-drained soils.
