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 MoreHostas down south April 2022
Comments (12)bkay2000 - I am about 15 miles from Jackson, MS, so I basically have the same weather you do. The plants in the beds are from pots that I had left over from last year and a couple that I bought at a local yard and garden center this year. I have great luck with certain types in the ground, but a lot of them don't do that well. I have had great luck with Stained Glass, Guacamole, and Halcyon in the ground. undertheoaksgardener7b - I had never heard of Frozen Margarita and saw it at Lowe's last year. I think I bought it for $9.99 and it has done great. I don't think I have Penny Lane, but it could be Pilgrim. I will do some more checking on that....See MoreHosta Second Picture 2022
Comments (27)We have Stone Owls here. I was lucky enough to snag this pic of one while capturing this bed for this thread. The pots were moved back into the shed until Wednesday. Hopefully, our last freezing night of the Spring. 20 days before the average. Then the cleanup and planting begin in earnest. But I thought the same thing last year. I've got an early one here - Curly Fries or Pineapple Juice, I'm confused about the ID. This bed gets full morning sun until the leaf canopy fills in. Peonies, Heuchera and a few Hosta pips. The JMs are nearly invisible. The hill really drops off at the far end and to the left....See MoreHosta Leaves 2022 ........................
Comments (34)According to hugos database frances williams came about as a sport of a seedling. in 1936 it was a big deal to have margined hosta of interest. So it became popular. …today i would not introduce a plant with that flaw. there have been look a likes that have come after it that dont burn. From hugos database Alex J. Summers Distinguished Merit Award 1986 (Caroline Williams). Purchased by Mrs. Williams out of a batch of H. sieboldiana seedlings at Bristol Nursery, Connecticut in 1936. Named by G. W. Robinson of the Oxford Botanical Gardens (1963). 20" tall. Light Shade. 50-90% shade. This yellow edged sport of H. sieboldiana 'Elegans' is always at the top of the popularity list. The heavily corrugated round blue leaves are edged with a wide golden border. The 3' clumps are topped with white flowers in late spring. In areas of low humidity, or with any sun, the gold margin tends to sun scorch....See More

last yearlast modified: last yeardeb indigo child isn't from indigo. indigo is actually a color between blue and violet. not regular blue. remember in elementary science class. roygbiv? it was my first notice of the color name indigo. some plants i like to give names that have deeper/dual meanings as well.
i lost the parentage, but i can speculate that it was first blush by clausa var clausa based on its closed flower.
i'm pushing for purple blushers and variegated blushers next.
i've come close with streakers, we shall see if they improve with age or need another genetic boost..

last yearlast modified: last yearBeth Indigo keeps its colour pretty well but would be better if it got a bit less sun. It gets sun until at least 3:00 or later.
Here it is in August 2020 when I was clearing out the Dianthus deltoides surrounding the area. I am on a well and do not water hence the browning tips.

last yearI hate playing catch-up. That Iris Frazier is going on my list, slow or no.
I have 5 I's but only took picks of Inniswood so you get 2 I's from me.
Inniswood at the bottom in June (the month not the Hosta).
And later in the year.
Plus, Inniswood Gardens is right around the corner from me. I should get a pic of theirs this year.
