I'm revisiting this post because I recall buying "Francee" some years ago. There are similarities between Undulata and Francee and now I'm wondering if this could be Francee instead.

Here is a current photo.

Is there a way to differentiate between the two?


it's a common question that comes up on the Hosta ID facebook page. Undulata albo has a bit of tri-colour blending happening, bright green centres, and rippled edges. Francee has a tendency toward straighter edges and a thinner, more even margin and is a darker green. there's also fortunei albomarginata...sort of in between the two from what i can tell. lol
