2009 Hosta of the Year Earth Angel
Comments (24)Yeah, sometimes the closed blooms have a faint tint to them, which allows them to be called "near white" and it has happened to me with Satisfaction. Then the camera plays tricks as well. So I always take flower color in photos posted online with a grain of salt. Leaf pattern is what I note the most. Color not so much. And Newhostalady, thanks for correcting my incorrect assumption. :)...See MoreEarth Angel Rose
Comments (64)Summers, you might have a good point about the own-root. Mine are own root and if you can imagine 6 canes coming from the base that are about 3 1/2 feet long, that's what it looked like over the winter. That growth came last fall after planting in October. But the spring growth has been nothing but filling in and lots of buds, the original canes are still the same length. I will probably get the "worst gardener in the world award" but I think I'm going to just watch and see. Even though it still has the same long canes, it visually looks so much stronger now that it's filling in. But is twice as big and wide as others on the same line planted the same time. Moses, didn't you recently say that Chamblees sends multiple cuttings in one pot? I had no idea and didn't separate anything. Also, mine is getting too much shade this time of the year so I think that it's great that she's covered in so many buds at all!...See MoreUpdate on Earth Angel rose
Comments (182)I have 4 in large 20 gallon pots that i bought this spring. They didn’t get a huge number of blooms before the heat of zone 9b Houston weather really set in June. But what was worse was their damage which made leaves and buds tiny. I finally found Spinosad spray for the thrips and it has bounced back this fall and is going to have another flush of blooms. I’m going to leave mine in pots another year at least because I’m not sure of the right spot. They can’t take full south Texas sun for sure....See MoreEarth Angel - OMG !
Comments (47)@suebelle_neworleans That is SO stunning. Mine throws out theses really tall branches. Do you prune it often? Is it in full sun? Does the grafted bloom more than own root. Mine is an own root, which went from band to 2-3 ft in one year but does not bloom with same profusion as yours.....See MoreAnnette Holbrook(z7a)
