I have them all planted (23) either in ground or pots and had time to take some pics. Here we go...

Dark Shadows. Like the subtle varigation. Anyone have mature pics?

Fog Light in pot. Unique color on this one. Small with wavy leaves.

Brutus, also in pot for now. I'm an Ohio State alumnus and worked there for about 35 years, so had to have this one. (Brutus is OSU's sport team mascot for anyone not familiar).

This will be a very large, dark blue-green with rippled leaves.

I apologize for making a separate second thread on this subject, But it took ten minutes for this one to show up in the forum, and I thought maybe I'd deleted it....duh..... so sorry. Yes, I should get my first Naylor print catalog, which this PDF file is probably it in electronic form. You see, I was not ordering hosta when the 2012 cat came out, so I did not know they had a print catalog. tsk tsk tsk...live and learn. In that second thread, I mention the addition of Bridal Falls to their repertoire. Babka, if they are offering some oldies and goodies, then I'll be paying attention, and perhaps getting ready for spring with the print catalog same as you. Never doubt that Bridal Falls is at the TOP of my list for next year, even if the list is a short one.

Oh, my aching back. After a good soak I put 8 in the ground, the rest in pots until I decide where they will go. I was potting the last ones in the dark. Ibuprofen and hot tub, here I come.

BABKA, I CAN HELP WITH THE NO ROOM PROBLEM..... just box up your Snake Eyes and ship it east and south, there is always room for that one. :) I tried to get one, but Chris (or was it Gary) ....(I forget where but I called to check on it)....said that it was not going into tissue culture, and only a few were available EVER. So it is buried deep in my subconscious for the time when I find it or something very close to it again available. That is one great hosta. Perhaps you can say the cost per sq foot of a house includes the labor, but I'm not sure that applies to the garden or landscaping LABOR. It is food for thought though, Bernd.

New Hosta Journal and Naylor's 2011 catalog.

I mentioned two new hostas in my original post, and it is still there. It was strictly an observation, not promoting anything. I check back often. Never saw other entries that might have been deleted. Bernd- Naylor usually sends out their catalog much later. This one is the earliest ever for them. I'm zone 9, rarely if ever a frost, and most of mine still look good. BUT I'm very happy to see what will be offered for next year. I get late February shipments here. -Babka

Heatwave. Nice varigation and leaf size. Understand it will not be a fast grower, but that is OK for the spot I placed it!

Her Eyes Were Blue. I'm in a blue phase this year and have added many to my collection. There are such subtle differences between some of them. Hope this will be a good one. I was unable to find a lot of info on some of these as I was making choices in bidding!

Lakeside Spruce Goose. Small, long pointed leaves, crisp greeen and white. What's not to love?

Thumbs up! Nice job, Hostahosta. 'Lily Blue Eyes', from your pic, kind of reminds me of 'Queen Of The Seas'. I like it.

Enjoy,
Don B.

Tokudama Aureonebulosa. Planted it right next to Tokudama Flavocircinalis. Saw a pic in an old Hosta Journal of them together and loved it. Of course it will take a few years for them to even touch each other.

That's enough for now. Thanks for looking. Please share if you have experience or pics of any of these.

I bought 'Foglight' earlier in the season from Naylor Creek library auctions. It's turning out to be a really pretty hosta. Mine was a little smaller than yours and, as you can see from the pic, it's grown fairly quickly. It gets sun until noon and has developed a beautiful color as well.
