Hmmm...so many years, so many memories of hostas with promise going by the wayside. What does Tony Avent say, it isn't hardy if I haven't killed at least three of them (paraphrase). But seriously, I could never grow Shade Fanfare (how's that for an oldie?). I finally seem to have a White Chrstimas l...

Same over hee in South Jersey, Tigger. And the beds in the deepshade are just plain soking wet. So, we gently raked out those couple of beds this afternoon. Got some hostas over here that are 4'"or 5" p and starting to leaf out. If winter's stayed away this long, he better stay away for good now. No...

Because of illness I was unable to do much than the bare minimum last summer. That combined with the mild wet winter here has resulted in a great deal of problems with compacted soil and crown rot. Is there anything I can do with the little bits of crown clumped with soil to try and revive them?

In cleaning out the leaves around my deck this morning I found two holes about as big around as an apple right up next to the structure. Upon further inspection, another hole of the same size was dug last night in a freshly mulched garden bed next to the deck. Any ideas?

I found it at the Triple Oaks Nursery & Herb Garden in southern New Jersey. It's owner is a well known garden writer in our area. Can't seem to find this particualr hosta mentioned anywherer else.

Has anyone heard of this hosta? Saw it in a garden center yesterday and I can't find any information on it.
Thanks,

368 sounds close. I know we were up to 425 before the voles and crown rot hit over the winter. Lost about 50 babies, including an OS divison of Tequila Sunrise I got from Rick Sawyer. :cry: At least my picture of it is in the Hosta Library to remind me. Trying to get more selective, but too many goo...
