Looks like it might be Quilting Bee, although in my garden QB is a darker green. Are the leaves thin substanced, or fairly thick? Do you recall when you planted it if it had a lot of separate roots for each division, or a long rhyzome with divisions along it?

Could be Teaspoon. Does it have a serrated edge?

Steve

My guess is also Teaspoon.

Thanks for the responses so far!
I do have Teaspoon as well and they are not similar in real life.
I looked at Quilting Bee on the Hosta Library and it looks much darker and also more corrugated than what I have.
This hosta does not have a serrated edge and I can't remember what the root system was like.

Keep the guesses coming!
Thanks,
Vanessa

Do you remember what the flowers are like? Does it have a lot of flowers?

Steve

Looks very similar to Candy Hearts.

I just flipped through my pictures of August and September last year because I couldn't remember the flowers and in all the pictures there were no scapes. Weird. I also leave the scapes up until the following spring when we clean out the beds so there is no possibility of them being cut down. I will pay attention this year to see if they do bloom at all.

not to be an alarmist...but what's going on w/ those leaves on the left side of the plant...is it just damage from something?

I believe they are little brown spots from water droplets that froze. They are on the first flush of leaves. We've had some really strange weather this season here in Ontario.

Could also be Jade Scepter. How many vein pairs?

ok...just checking :)

I thought of Teaspoons, but it is unlikely that the seller wouldn't have known what it was--that variety is very distinctive, especially as an immature plant. Can you tell us how much substance it has, and also where you purchased the plant?

Too small to be Candy Hearts, which has much larger leaves, even as a young plant, and in three years CH will be 20 inches tall. It doesn't look exactly like my Jade Sceptor, but all the Tiara series is somewhat variable depending on growing conditions, so that is a possibility. It does have some resemblance to Nakiana, but unless you bought it from a hosta nursery or grower, that's unlikely.

I would say it has average substance. 7 vein pairs.
I bought it from a small independent perennial/hosta place that was going out of business. She ran it from her property which was about 60 acres. But it wasn't very organized and she couldn't remember the name of this one.
Other examples of plants I purchased from her were Sum of All, Titanic, Avocado, Gypsy Rose, Regal Splendor, Dust Devil, Mayan Moon, Leola Fraim.

I don't think it is any of the ones you listed. I am sure I have this plant! But it is 2:00 in the morning and I can't run outside now. I'll get the name tomorrow!

Next day...Hi Hippie, would you consider this to be a mini-small size? That's what it looks like in the picture. And it looks just like my Limey Lisa. Do you remember ever having that one?

chris

Worldly Treasure? but my WT has good substance...though not as much as the description said, as I recall
