'Frances Williams'. Minks selected it for its noticeably shinier leaf surface — a refinement that gives the heavy corrugation and deep cupping of that celebrated parent an added luminosity in the shade border. The thick, round leaves carry 16 vein pairs and a wide chartreuse edge that frames the green centre with warm, glowing definition. Near-white flowers arrive on tall 75 cm (30\") scapes from June through July. It performs reliably across Canadian hardiness zones 3 through 9.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLeaf Surface:\u003c\/strong\u003e Noticeably shinier than H.
