I have 'Kifukurin Ko Mame' labeled in my garden but I don't see it in the
2000 Hosta Finder, but I DO see 'Fukurin Ko Mame'. Is this the same plant
and was there a name change? or did I just have the wrong name all along??

Plant is correctly labeled as 'Kifukurin Ko Mame'
Schmid says "Ko" means small and "Mame" means pea.
The above Hosta is a great edging plant around stones or bricks. It's a bit
Stoloniferous and forms a slowly spread clump the grows only 1 inch or so
high.
Like most short growing Hosta one needs to keep up with weed control.
