Re: Working on a simply price list page. Is this helpful?

For those that know exactly what they are looking for, this would be great. For those like me, who spend hours looking at all the different images and descriptions while trying to make up their mind, this wouldn't be necessary. I do like the idea of having the quantities available. Then I could refe...

Re: Hosta of the Day - 'Quarter Note'

We've had two frosts and mine has some green leaves yet. Zone 4a. :hmm:

Re: minis in zone 4

I've been very successful with minis in zone 4a. I have them in raised beds only and make little protected areas to tuck them in. I often use rocks around them like in the following pictures. That way they don't get lost in amongst everything else. It not only showcases them, it keeps them protected...

Re: Labels

I have a Brother PT-1290 and you can get laminated label tape for it. Worth the investment.

Re: Alex Summers

Yes, you got lucky. I honestly was not overly impressed with it when it was younger, but that sure changed! You will be so happy with it when it matures.

Re: Alex Summers

Alex Summers has become my favorite. I can't say enough about it. Beautiful, showy hosta with slug resistance and sun tolerance. It even appeared drought tolerant this year. Love this one! http://i1156.photobucket.com/albums/p580/rockNhostas/AS.png?t=1348802614 http://i1156.photobucket.com/albums/p5...

Re: Anyone got pics of Lullabye?

I wasn't going to post this, because it looks pretty bad right now, :roll: but here it is. It is only in it's second year. It was in a more open area and got hammered by frost early in the year. The weakened leaves then bleached out badly in the sun. I left a few of those because I didn't want to cu...

Re: Daily Hosta - 'Sparkler' - add your pics

This was new in my garden this year. It got a little stressed during that hot, dry spell, but it's doing really good now. Sent up new growth. I really like this one too. I like getting this kind of substance in a mini. Hope the mature plant turns out as well as I'm thinking it will. http://i1156.pho...
