Hallson Gardens

Thanks Chris!!! I just went out to take new pics of Corkscrew and the leaves I took a pic of yesterday are all yellow now.

Here's some really bad, blurry pics of Corkscrew. I'll try again tomorrow but thought I'd go ahead and post these icky pics. I just received this plant a few days ago and didn't notice this till yesterday.

I noticed this yesterday on my Francee and can't find any pics of Francee with HVX. Is this HVX? It's been in this pot since I bought it late this spring.

Are you guys watering or spraying with the Bayer Disease Control? I've spayed it a couple times but not seeing good results. The instruction on the bottle sayes to spray.

My bleach doesn't state anything about the percentage. Wonder why. It's Clorox plus splashless bleach.

So for soaking new hostas before planting we should soak them in a 10% solution? Do we soak the whole plant or just the crown and roots?

Donna, what's this bleach soak?

I looked for that planter last year when she posted a pic of it, but never found it.

I found the RU Extended Control Label

I bought the Ortho version of it 2 years ago, completely read the lable and then was kinda afraid to use it. So I still have the unopened bottle. See if you can go to the ortho website and read the label and let me know what you think. If I remember right it tells how far away you can spray to stuff...

If you wanna keep the pic full size and your posting them from photobucket, do the clickable thumpnails instead. You get that option when you select your pics.

Hey sky, here's what it looked like before I divided up for trades and to take to my hosta society meeting. It'll grow great and pretty fast!! I love it and like everyone else has said, it smells great!! http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa240/baja220/Hosta%202008/th_FragrantFire5-27-08_00.jpg http...

Wow, that's really pretty!! Hope yours is somewhat stable as streakers go.

I have pods on everything except what I pollinated and labled. And now it's way tooooooo hot to set pods.

It does looks awesome!!

Tempie, show Chris what it looked like before you dug it. I think he'll find that interesting.

Dave, I love everything about that plant!! It's beautiful!

Found it!! It's epestsolutions on Ebay. Here's a link.

Prostar Link

I just did a search on Ebay for the sellers name mentioned, Prostar and Contrast and found nothing. I do have the Bayer Disease Control and I've used it twice, but I'm still loosing hostas. I just planted a Blue Shadows in May and a few day's ago I noticed it's leaves laying on the ground. It looks ...

Wow!!!!!!! That's a big difference!!!

Those are nice photos!!!! Can you run back out and take a pic of the same flowers with nothing but Auto so we can see what the difference is?
I haven't had time yet.
