Can't wait Phil. Mine was new last year. Do you have it's opposite Moonstruck? That's one I love. I just finished moving it to a larger area by my front door. It really shows off right below Blue Betty Lou. You said on another post I just read that you liked your garden to be crowded. So do I. I think I've moved 80 hostas from one place to another this year. They should be on roller skates. Myrle

Does anyone have Fireworks - I bought one a few years back, very young single eye and it didn't survive the first winter. I haven't seen one since. I felt it was very aptly named, particularly when in bloom. It was upright and reminded me of a miniature 4th of July skyrocket with green and white spray and purple stars on top. Les

Good looking iris. 'Dusky Challenger' has been voted as the #1 iris. Here are some tall beardeds. Darcy's Choice - Schreiner, HM'09 Dawn of Change - Ernst, HM'96 lack of branching (example of color blow-out) Delirious - Maryott'86, unfurling, correct photographed color after three years of trying everything to capture it. Delirious - the usual way it frustratingly photographs, incorrectly. back to the correct color of Delirious - love it. Devil's Lake - Schreiner, HM'01, unfurling, so silky, vy frag. Devonshire Cream - Sutton, AM'04

I have 2 Paisley Prints--I bought a very small one and then got a much larger plant. The larger plant grew very well. The small one was hanging on last summer. Ice Age Trail is on the right, directly in front of the hydrangea and the smaller Paisley Print is just to the left of it. Both of the plants that I bought are Paisley Prints but I wonder if you can buy a plant that is just too small to thrive? Has this happened to anyone else with hostas? Steve, if I order Ruffed Up it will be directly from the hydridizer, have you ever looked him up? Monty Carlson at Northernair Hostas. He has other great plants that are worth a look (perhaps some more orders?)
