It looks kind of like a curly leaf variety of croton without the colorful foliage.

ooooo aaaaahhhh, there are some great photos/hostas posted here. moccasinlanding, thanks! I had almost forgotten about posting here. Will try to check things out more often. I just can't afford to want any more hostas -- no space. lol! mac48025, the hostas in the pic are: Montana aureomarginata at top center. Francee to the back left, and Undulata Erromena to the back right. I think that's Heavenly Tiara to the front left of MA, and Dark Star in the foreground. This is the first year that the deer didn't eat Dark Star! :) There's a gorgeous Plantagenia behind MA that you can't see in this pic. :p luuk, I LOVE the single heart-shaped leaf photo!

Tim, I posted your first picture on our MG forum and nobody got it. One person identified the part but nobody knew it was Stokes Aster. At least one person grows them and had never "seen" this. It sparked interest in looking much closer at our plants. We tend to look at the plant as a whole or under a microscope for identifying diseases and critters eating them, but not at this level. Thanks!!! (They liked your website, too!)

Speaking of New Growth... here is my terrarium I put together. I don't know the names of all the plants, but I just love the one on the left. It looks like something from the sea. So I placed some seashells in there and a string of fairy lights. The terrarium is about 24" wide and shaped like a Brandy glass. There is stone at the bottom, then a layer of coffee filters, charcoal and potting soil. The last time I decorated it I placed a silver Christmas ornament in upside down so it looked like a gazing ball. I think I will keep the seaweed theme and add something nautical. Maybe a ceramic fish if I can find one. My iPad only lets me post one pic at a time so I'll post another pic separately. Again, this month I was planning to make marbleized fabric and then pillows out of the fabric, but still haven't got around to it. I ordered what I need and it's expected to ship Tuesday. So maybe for May's challenge...
