All your rain has made them VERY happy!

Windymess, just about everything I'm doing these days is related to getting out of NYC and moving near my friends in Baltimore. Today it's a beautiful dry day, and my friend Chris is coming over when he finishes work to help me dig the holes for the larger hostas. I've stocked up on 5, 7, and 10 gallon fabric grow pots, acquired another bag of container potting soil, soaked a half-dozen more blocks of coir to mix with the soil, made an appointment with a new realtor, and told a very aggressive Chinese real estate agent who rings my bell over and over and over again late at night to bug off--or else. I don't even know that woman and she's trying to scope out when I'm home, she has "cash buyer". It's unreal! Furthermore, she woke my neighbor's 3 very young kids. Please, let me sell my place for a good price and find a sweet little place near my friends, plant my hostas and heuchies and deer-proof them. Deer have not been a factor here in Queens, only "landscape workers", so I'll have to devise ways to save my hostas from them down there. Irish Spring, anyone?

All looking terrific!!

I love love your bowl 'o minis. I planted a bowl today but now that I see yours, I know I want to add some rocks! Really sets them off.

That Smiling Sailor is adorable and I think I am going to add it to my wish list!

And I looked for Georgia Peach heuchy this weekend since it was mentioned in a thread on the Heuchera forum but was unable to find. I will look at another garden center this coming weekend.

Popmama, I did a little search for you for Georgia Peach. I didn't see any at Echter's, your local store, or at any of your local stores. I see that Plant Delights in NC has it. Honeycreek Nurseries in IL has it, too. In Wisconsin, Roots & Rhizomes has it. Hope this helps.

Esther, your hostas all look wonderful. I especially love Smiling Sailor, since I sail often I like to collect nautical named hostas.

Such a beautiful garden Esther!. I'm going to copy your heuchera--hosta combinations. The rocks in the planter add texture...nice!

Thanks, Mae. The rocks are really pretty AND they keep the darned squirrels from digging up plants. I noticed yesterday that a teeny division off my Hyuga Urajiro was ripped out of the soil in its grow bag. I had forgotten to surround the new little plant with my stones and the squirrels struck. I replanted the little guy and then gave it a protective circle of stones. Take THAT, squirrels!

Really lovely plants and combos Esther. Hosta & Heuchera make such a perfect pairing and you have a wonderful collection of both! Those darn squirrels just poke their noses into everything. One time my DH and I had gathered nearly a bushel basket of butternuts and then went in for a bite of lunch. When we came back out the squirrels had spread 99% of them back on the ground where they had been. We had to laugh, who was messing with who?

it is good to have a sense humor when dealing with Mother Nature!

Thanks so much for looking for me Esther! I checked another garden center today and no Georgia peach. There was a really red one but I'll hold out for Georgia peach for now. There are still a few more garden centers that I haven't been to! And I will be making a trip to the Western Slope in early June so I can look there as well.

I will be adding some rocks to my mini hosta bowl and will post a picture soon.

Popmama, that sounds promising. If you like, I can look online for more sources of it. I was trying to find places near you, but a whole lot of them are sold out.
