Info='Academy White Edge'.
This is a vigorous sport of H. 'Fortunei Aureomarginata'. It differs from other white-margined fortunei hostas such as H. 'Carol', H. 'North Hills, or H. 'Crowned Imperial' in having somewhat larger leaves and in making a somewhat larger, more mounded clump. Not as sun tolerant as H. 'Francee'.
