Re: Pretty Peggy has a sport
Well Pretty Peggy's sport has returned. Last eye to open up and it is still coloring up. Seems like this is the year for sports. I see a few more of them popping up around my garden.

Pretty Peggy has a sport
I looked it up in the hosta library and it says PP has no sports or seedlings. Well I am happy to say she has a very healthy sport. It started last year and has settled down into a very nice looking hosta. So far only one eye but huge and healthy. I will have to post pics tomorrow after work.

Seeds
I was wondering if anybody was interested in seeds this year. My spilt Milk is loaded. They haven't ripened yet but so far they look pretty good. I had fun this year with starting a few Swoosh seedlings. I got 2 growing well. One is streaked and one light green. Hostas are so fun to grow. lol

Re: Hallson Summer Hosta Swap
I hope they all do well for you. Everything I sent you has done very well for me here in Ohio. The slowest growing for me has been Imp but then it sported and had to be divided. I started out with 4 different colors of hibiscus and have started from seed about 10 other plants. Most have turned out t...

Re: Wondering if anyone has these cultivars?
The only one I have is Striptease. 3 large clumps of them in different areas of the garden. All are doing great and I don't have very good soil either. Doesn't seem to mind my pine tree either.

Re: Hallson Summer Hosta Swap
Thankyou, The information is very helpful. Its nice having a connection to the hosta. Many years ago I got to talk to Peter Ruh when he had Mark Zilis there as a speaker. I got to talk to Mark too. Didn't know very much about hosta back then because now I would have a hundred questions. Loved some o...

Re: Hallson Summer Hosta Swap
Count me in. I really need to check my mail more often, I almost missed out on the swap. With all this rain all I do is pull weeds. I will also try to get my list updated as best as I can. Lost a few and added a few. Thankyou so very much for hosting the swap, and sending out a message to everyone w...

Anybody ?saving seed this year?
I just came in from collecting 3 pods of Allegan Fog. Lots of Swoosh and waiting for Savanah Supreme to ripen. Also have another streaky that set 4 or 5 nice big pods. Wish I knew what it was. Anybody interested in a few seeds?

Re: Daily Hosta #1 - 'Cherish' - Add your pics
Mine is doing better. I put it in a large washtub with a few other mini hosta. Even forgot to bring it into the basement for winter. And you all know how nasty this winter was. Will have to go out and get a pic of it sometime inbetween canning spaghetti sauce. lol So it might take a few days. :wink:

Re: Daily Hosta #2 - 'Allegan Fog' - Add your pics
So what do seeds from Allegan Fog turn out? Do you get any streaky babys?
Asking because it set seed this year if anybody wants them. 3 pods
