The first resembles my Christmas Tree. The blue could be Blue Wedgwood, as you suggest. This one is bigger than mine, and the blues are always difficult to id by photo. Both are very nice.

Thanks, Steve, I looked up "Christmas Tree" and it could be that one.

Christmas Tree' comes to us from both Kevin Vaughn and Mildred Seaver (1982). The foliage mound reaches 36 x 20" with 18" bloom scapes. It has often been confused with Aden's 'Grand Master'. The leaves are 10 x 6", cordate, and deep green with a cream-white edge. The plant has very nice substance and is heavily crinkled. Van Wade says that it prefers shade to 1/3 sun. The funnel-shaped white flowers bloom in July. To quote Van Wade: "...flowers in July produce a flower with vestigial leaves in the shape of a Christmas tree, hence its name."

I'll wait till it blooms and then I'll have more clues. In the meantime, does anyone else have any ideas?

Could the blue be Halcyon? It is a readily available cultivar.

halcyon was my first thought...

the blue version of june.. from which it came ...

same leaf shape

I think the first is Gold Crown, i.e. Fortunei Aureomarginata, which only shows that rugosity when mature.
The second, I think Halcyon.

First one- Fortunei Aureomarginata (aka Gold Crown, Golden Crown). Second one- Halcyon or Hadspen Blue. Halcyon is bluer than Hadspen Blue. Don

I think fortunei Aureomarginata on the first also. I'm not sure of the blue.
