According to The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "As one of the host world's leading hybridizers, Bob Solberg often bucks trends and traditional thought. After all, how many hosta breeders think of 'Francee' as a breeding plant? How about the one from Green Hill Farm in North Carolina !"

From the Field Guide to Hostas by Mark Zilis (2014), "This is one that should be on everyone's favorites list."
