Hi heatherbon I have two small hosta plants. The are just the plain green kind. I can trade them for seeds if you like, or postage. Whichever. :) Let me know!

Okay, so I went out Sunday evening and covered up my hostas, geraniums (cranesbill), and bleeding heart with buckets and boxes and such because it was supposed to get down to freezing Sun and Mon nights before warming up. Now it's supposed to get down even COLDER tonight.... what should I do? Can I keep everything covered up for three days straight, or should I be uncovering everything in the morning so it can get sun, then recovering every evening? Our forecast for today is: Today: Partly sunny and chilly with a high in the upper 40s to around 50. Tonight: Mostly clear with widespread frost as temperatures fall to the upper 20s to around 30. Tomorrow: Sunshine with increasing clouds in the afternoon. It will warm up to the upper 50s. After that, the 7-day forecast has us above 44 degrees, so I should be okay. Just wondering if my babies are going to be okay covered from Sunday evening to Wednesday morning, or if I need to let them "see the light" today?

Doesn't look like it to me.

Well, I LOVE them ALLL. I have to say there is not a one that I wouldn't mind having. I do have to say that Color Glory done very will for me as all the others did (SO FAR). And, yes there are some that aren't as pretty as other but I tend to find something that I like about every hosta that I have. So, if I had to pick one it would be Frances Williams. She is an awesome hosta - doesn't burn for me looks great! She tends to stay for a couple years and leaves me. I HAD Colory Glory which was beautiful until the stinking, no good for nothing VOLES had it for a midnight snack along with Spilt Milk, Independence and countless other. OH and Thunder Bolt. Boy, I was MAD on that one. I do agree that hosta loves what it loves and they can tend to be spoilt. Anyway, I also have a question. Have any of you tried the Castor Oil remedy for VOLES?
