Comments (11)The vast majority of LS Hostas went on the market, before any had reached the mature stage. So, there were a number of them that failed the test of time. I have tried growing about 20 different ones and all have failed in my garden, which contains about 1000 other Hostas. Other Hosta gardeners in this area have had similar results. Therefore, I will not knowingly purchase another one. There is at least one grower in my area that removes the LS prefix from his stock, hoping, I suppose, that new Hosta aficionados won't know they are purchasing a Hosta that is almost certainly destined to fail! Just my experience and opinion, FWIW. Rb...See MoreLakeside hosta
Comments (8)I've purchased a number of hostas from Rob, and have been emailing back and forth with him for a couple of months. I've found him to be a very nice, easy to deal with person who cares very much about his hostas. The hostas I ordered were all very generous, healthy divisions with incredible roots. I bought a number of Lakeside originator stock miniature varieties, and the pieces he sent were so generous that I was able to divide all but one variety into several nice pieces. Lakeside Scamp got split into 5 pieces, several of them doubles, and Lakeside Neat Petite is now 7 pieces, again with mostly doubles and one triple. Other varieties were also quite generous, and I was delighted to add several very rarely seen Lakeside varieties to my mini collection. I've joined his club, and find the concept to be novel and appealing. He is going to get many more of the Lakeside varieties out to the general public, and at reasonable prices, but will also still have originator stock available for those who prefer to purchase it. He is also continuing Mary Chastain's breeding program, so there will be more Lakesides in the future, which is good news. He moved every single hosta Mary had up to Michigan, which must have been an incredible job. All in all, he seems to be very serious about this, plans to take good care of the Lakeside name and plants, and will, in my opinion, be a major asset to the hosta community. He also plans to donate a complete collection of the Lakeside hostas to a botanical garden so all of Mary's varieties will be viewable in one place, and preserved as a complete set. I'd like to see that done for many more hybridizers in the future, as I believe this will be the first garden of this type. If you like the Lakeside hostas, I highly recommend joining the club. It's going to be very interesting seeing what Rob does over the next few years....See MoreHosta E 2024 .... .... . . ... .... .
Comments (18)peren.all - I think you may be correct about my Earth Angel. I never questioned it before but comparing it to othersl and the HL it does have quite rippled/pie crust edges. I've had it for so long and never really paid much attention to it. Hmmm, wonder what it could be? Thank you Edited to add - I looked at the Dan Rawson list for rippled hosta in the HL. Good lord, it would take me years to try to compare them all....See MoreRelated Professionals
