Comments (4)Devon, as densely packed as this hosta grows, do you have any concept of how LARGE it will become? Is it a small/medium perhaps? Has it been green all the time this spring? Do you keep your invoices with the names on there? I always have those available, especially good when I organized my hosta by the source...where I purchased them. Life was much easier that way. :) This post was edited by moccasinlanding on Mon, May 12, 14 at 16:26...See MoreHelp I D my hosta please!

Comments (7)Couple of things to keep in mind here, jbranch. The labels invariably show mature plants and what you're buying is anything but. That's one, another is that quite likely you have yours in a different location in terms of sun exposure and moisture. You'd be amazed at how different the same variety will look when you change location and resultant light exposure. On top of that GE has this reputation for being a slow-poke, so it may not show much improvement until it's been in the ground for at least 3 years....See Moreilikefriday
