Hosta t 2022 ..............
Comments (32)My #1 favorite Hosta even though it hasn't really increased for me. It will be split and 1/2 moved to hopefully a better location this year. I love the tall, vase shape that shows off the legs. And the ruffled edges are a big plus. Have I mentioned that I like the green-on-green look? This adds a color changing margin, but not just a single change. It comes up yellow, goes to medium green, then to lime green and finishes with a brighter yellow and green cream edge with overlays streaking in to middle. I didn't get any pics of the early yellow edge last year. I need to take more pics of it this coming year. So here's a May pic from 2021: and after the edge turns green then lime green and the finale: I've finally got The Queen on order this year and I'm hoping for a similar display right next to it....See MoreHosta Yellow 2022 ............................
Comments (27)Pieter that one i sent to mark zillis lab 3 years ago, so solberg is selling it now its 'light the match' high priced the first year. i don't get any royalties on those. it has the substance of subcrocea so it will bleach. it works best in a pot which would be good for you. the os in the ground hasn't liked the 2 years of drought we've had so it has shrunk to half size. i relocated it. so i'm hoping it bounces back this year....See MoreHosta Blues 2022 ....................................
Comments (23)old_dirt really nice Hadspen Blue! Debra they are all beautiful but Prairie Sky is a standout along with Blueberry Muffins and Blue Hawaii! I went back over all my pics of Silver Bay. It gets sun all day except around 1:30 - 2:30. My soil is moisture retentive and I am on the edge of zone 4b so those are things to keep in mind with placement. jocl17 very nice DBS. Ann just lovely. Diamond Lake is a beauty. I think I would rule out Blue Cadet as your NOID. Might lean toward Fragrant Blue. If you could give close up pics of foliage & flowers as well as size it would help decide the ID....See MoreHosta Giants and the Large guys 2022 ............
Comments (15)Laurie, your Blue Angel is huge! I thought mine was big at about 5 feet, lol lol. Also, cannot believe the size of Krossa Regal and Regal Splendor! Winter Snow is a lovely giant…. I ordered that one but it will take time to get to the size of yours….. Terry, all three of yours look terrific! After looking in the HL I agree that the one labeled BM, is not. I am no expert, but it seems to lack the puckering, any blue and the wax coating that can be seen in most pictures. That said, it is described as having “leaves (that are) a light blue, cordate and have excellent substance.” Nearly slug proof. Also checking the flowers when it blooms may help. It has pale lavender flowers that bloom early and are floriferous. Hosta Size 54X48. I haven’t seen you in the forum before, WELCOME if you are new! So I am not sure how familiar you are with the Hosta Library. But, in case you aren’t….. on the front page there are 3 columns under the alphabet. First column, second row you will see “Rawson’s Lists.” The lists group hostas into all kinds of categories. Blue, green, margined, sun tolerant etc. You could print the page for green hostas and when you have time, look through the library and see if any hosta looks like yours. Tedious, but worth the effort perhaps. Beth, you also have some nice giants….Fried Green Tomatoes is huge! Looks like your biggest one! I’m impressed with the height of Komodo Dragon’s petioles….and the leaves are so nice and rippled. I envy your flowers on Sum & Substance…..so prolific. I have Wave Runner, but it’s young….can’t wait to see it get large…. hosta_maker, your Victory is really humongous!! Not as large, but sooo awesomely BLUE, Queen of the Sea takes my breath away! Why did I think it was a green hosta??? debra...See More

Paula, loved the jokes!
Cathedral Windows finally growing!
Church Mouse together with Sun Mouse. They both weren't doing that well so I put them together in a spin out bag. I guess it's time to separate them.
My new Church Mouse.
Cookie Crumbs. You can't find it? It's right in the center of the picture! Yup, it's that tiny thing! Will it come back this year? Maybe not.

Curly Fries. This picture is taken in September. Love the two tone color going on. The mesh is there mostly because of the squirrels. This is a bit of a raised bed with new "fluffy" soil so the squirrels and raccoons just had to dig in it.
