well yes mike there is....23 dollars and 8 cents....lol....according to the
hosta finders average prices.....
now one came from pauline banyai in royal oak, michigan [or close to there]
and the other from herb benedict of hillsdale michigan.....i think it has
something to do with what state you are from....lol
according to the silver book, fan dance is a 'dorothy' mutation.....GS is a
fortunei mutation....now, what is dorothy...she is a decorata x fortunei
cross.....so though they share some common heritage....but they come from
different backgrounds....
now if your actual question was do they look the same....well ask me in about
3 months, and i will run into the yard and report back....maybe one of those
photo nuts have pix to compare....''
