Is this Rainforest Sunrise?
Comments (10)It was one of several I got in 2013 from G.W. Wild and Sons. It was a TC, but I didn't know that when I ordered. I assumed it was a regular sized hosta that was on sale. The guy who handles the garden part of the business told me in 2010 or 2011 that they got their starts from a company in Minnesota. In 2009, they were still selling nice sized field grown plants. Somewhere in between then and 2013, they changed to half rotten TC's (and apparently have new owners). I lost most of them over that winter. It was still TC size last year and is beginning to look like a hosta this year. It was labeled Rainforest Sunrise, I think. At least I had one that was labeled that. I'm not sure it's the same one, but I can't figure out what it is if it's not that. bk...See MoreRainforest Sunrise problems
Comments (20)I bought it 3 years ago, but I abused it horribly in the first year, not knowing that it should be in a pot deeper than 6'!

Comments (19)nicholsworth - yes, I'm pretty sure it is the same plant... I have three planted together in a triangular grouping to fill in an area.... It was a couple of years ago that I separated the other sport (Blue Maui), but I think it was the same plant. Well, at that time I potted it and it did beautifully, made it through the winter... next summer I planted it in the ground and it didn't make it through the next winter. But that may have been for any number of reasons. So - I will try again. I haven't gone out to separate this new one yet either... its been too busy around here so far... but I will eventually....See Morenicholsworth Z6 Indianapolis
