Comments (27)Melati, I used to plant my separate eyes of the same hosta in separate pots, but then I got too many pots so I wound up combining them. That works only so far. Like, two were supposed to be alike, but it happened that the 2nd eye of Brother Stefan wasn't variegated, it was a solid green leaf and I did not mix up anything. So I thought I had a sport, it turned out to be I suppose a Tissue Culture Failure TCF. It is healthy, it is out of the same TC batch as my Bro Stefan (who I will no longer show as "BS" for reasons known to Jonny...hehehe). I don't actually know what to call that solid green. I might give it away to my two garden neighbors. I combined my pots of Gold Drop, which is a small, and boy are those growing a lot, and one half the pot bloomed early and the other half late....you'd think it was reblooming, but it is a different part of the pot which blooms separately. Hosta can be so interesting. I have one Powder Keg, and it is holding its streaks boldly so I know you will enjoy growing it....See Morepics of new Naylor Creek hosta
Comments (9)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....See MoreNaylor Creek order arrived!!!
Comments (22)Jadie - The root pouches, I like, so far, but I'm not putting all of my eggs in one basket yet, so to speak, until I know for sure that the hostas will do well (or even better!) in those and will overwinter well in them. I'm just trying a handful in them this year, we shall see. I have found that, at first, the larger ones are a bit top heavy in them, but that changes pretty quickly once watering begins. I had that problem with some of the Land of the Giant hostas b/c, well, they send you giant hostas! Problem solved itself quickly, though. I really like the look of them, they are really cool. I think they will look great next year all grouped together. I can't wait, I have a plan for all of these new hostas involving a tiered presentation with the pots that should look awesome. Come on, Spring!...See Morehostatakeover swMO
