I've always heard that Hosta's and Maples don't go together. :( Don't fret, I have two beds circling two red maples. They both have Hosta's, Solomans seal, lucifers, small ornamental shrubs, cork screw, tulips, rockets, bleeding hearts, Huechrea, and the list goes on.... and on ... Oh and some Dalia...

Varigated Iris
Does anyone know if there is a name to a varigated Iris? I have one that has wide Blue/Green and White stripes. I've hunted looking for a name, and I can't find a varigated one. It produces very pink flowers. It doesn't reproduce very fast. it's actually very slow. It is also not as big as a typical...

Hi there! Not an expert, but I agree with the last two looking the same! Undulata of sort maybe a "Picto" The first one looks like a "Lancifolia" The color should get a little darker as the summer progresses. Yours looks to be in a little more sunlight than where mine typically sits. Check out the "...

Hi Karma! :lol: :lol: :lol: It did look like they were still eyeing up, but I wasn't sure! My Husband knows my theory on the grass -vs- Hostas, he asked me the other day what I was going to do when I ran out of Grass? I said, sell the house and buy acreage bush! :lol: :lol: :lol: Then I proceeded to...

Too Funny! I have to agree with Chris, "I'll grow a veggie garden first" I also have to agree with Wanda, "slimy Veggie leaves?" Yuck! :???: My Grandmother used to feed me greens like, dandilion greens, beet greens, turnip greens, and spiniach. All boiled, and every time I ate them I thought I was g...

This whole thread is too funny. :lol: My perspective is, if you have grass, you still have room for more Hosta's :eek: Where do you go if you need a good laugh?

Drastic times are calling for drastic measures. Mary ann; It was suggested to me that completely torching the plant would get rid of the virus in the plant it's self. However I find this tactic to be unsettling for trying to get rid of it throughout the soil bed it came from. Koterizing roots don't ...

In another Tread it was suggested to use a spade fork, to put it out, instead of cutting it with a shovel. It also suggested staying as close to the crown as possible. It doesn't eliminate the possibility of spread, just reduces the risks. It's under the "cleaning/disinfecting tools" Thread posted b...

I would have to agree with Pieter; I personnaly wouldn't divide the plant yet. Unless you are planning on having two seperate plants I would leave it. Typically I loosen waist bands, to give them more room, but I gennerally don't make a habit of dividing unless it needs it! But then again, that's ju...

Hi there! Great Question ~ What do you do with an infected plant that is already in the ground? If you dig it out, you leave roots behind that will sap and contaminate the soil. Leaving the possiblity of other Hostas picking up the disease. At least we're on the same page, regarding the contaminatio...

One thing that I had an opportunity to discuss, was HVX with a vendor, that supplies Hosta's and other items. When I approached asking questions regarding HVX it was put back to me.
