Hosta First Picture 2022 ...........................
Comments (38)These were shot earlier this afternoon. I tried to post this with the original picture on my phone and while it appeared as if it had taken the picture as part of the post when I hit 'submit' I never saw the actual picture and deleted the post. I have now taken the picture and down-sized on my 'puter and I'm trying again....It's not as if this is the first time I've ever posted an image.. Pieter PS I just had the very same thing happen again. The picture shows in the reply window and as soon as I hit submit the posting comes up with naught but the text. What's going on here....any ideas.... Just for fun, I'll try another camera source this time, not my phone... And again, same thing. Picture shows as having been uploaded in the editing/reply window and it's not there when the post is up.......See MoreHosta G 2022 ...................
Comments (34)Some more Gs Galaxy Gila River - such an unusual color and wins the largest flower/leaf ratio for me. I moved it to more shade to retain better color and the white edges tended to melt away later in the year. Gilt by Association - This was one of my most photographed Hosta the previous year. This year the leaf canopy grew and it is in more shade. I'm really looking forward to these two maturing together. Glad Rags and Mango Tango The always wet looking Glossy Ruffles. A replacement for a dwindler. I hope it was the location and not just a bummer of a plant as I love the look. Going For Gold and a great grower in a poor location - Golden Falls...See MoreHosta L 2022 No Lakesides
Comments (31)In my experience the color on Luna Moth is very stable shortly after the spring flush when it starts a little muted with less color contrast. Shadow's is either very early or growing in a lot of shadow (pun intended). Once upon a time I had a row of Luna Moths with more sun (and less root competition) towards the right side of the photo....See MoreHosta M 2022 .....................
Comments (33)Mbug, so many of your hostas look perfect! What is your secret, or did I ask you about this before? I mean, I don’t see one burn or slug munch or under performing plant in your photos…… Erin, that Monkey Business is really nice and love the shape and color of Marilyn Monroe. Beautiful leaf edging…. Beth, your MM is also beautiful, but has a different coloration than Erin’s……interesting … also love your mice…..I also plant mine in the ground……so many others have them in pots. If I did that I would have to overwinter them. That makes me nervous… debra...See More

last yearI've got a question or correction. My last post here I named a hosta " Fortunei Aureomarginata ". After seeing others and checking HL, I'm thinking it is actually ventricosa Aureomarginata.
What y'all think?
Fortunei or Ventricosa

last yearold_dirt what a lovely Francee. Mine has been suffering for years under a maple. Wow your FFPS is wonderful. The height of the scapes & color of the buds would indicate v. A. It is beautiful.
Thanks Debra I am so glad I got FD planted. Yours are all looking good and it is great to see the progression of FF.
Shadow I would be excited about FLW too. It will be fun seeing it over the years to come.
Ann FI is like a beacon in spring. Firn Line tends to do that. The white edged could be FA but there are some quite similar.
sweet_ betsy lucky you having that Snowdrift sport.
I did not get a pic of Fragrant Dream this year so here is a past one.

Great seedlings hosta_maker!
I am missing all the other former members too.
Nicholsworth, great presentation of Fire Island---one that I can't grow well! LOL
Fairy Dust. It's a cute one.
Feather Boa. Nice round beacon of light in the spring.
Firn Line. I have 3 of them. Pretty in the spring, but they grow slow for me.
First Frost
Yes I actually have two.

This is how First Blush comes up.
I don't get much "blush" but I think it is my fault. Bob Solberg says it NEEDS sun to bring out the "blush." I don't have much sun available.
Sometimes I see something "special" in a hosta and I try to take a few pictures with my better camera. Unfortunately just don't have the time to do more of that. But I love it when it turns out.
Here is First Blush:

last yearI'm still here. thanks for thinking of me. Just late to the party.
My first Foxfire Palm Sunday decided to sport into Foxfire Good Friday. I guess Palm Sunday comes before Good Friday so now I'm waiting for Foxfire Resurrection Day. I know Foxfire is out of business, but if FGF sported into something could someone else in good conscience name it Foxfire RD or would that be in bad taste?
Well, I guess FPS already sported into Foxfire Resurrection so I suppose not. Wow, I'd love to get that one. Anyone find it anywhere?
