There is a board devoted to seed growing. We mostly post over there about our seedlings.

Re: What turned out to be your best newer hostas this year?

I have added very few new hostas this year. Over half of what I've purchased, I got at the Hallsons get together, so they are just a few weeks old.

After next weekend, my last child will be married, wedding expenses over. I can "play" a little more next year! :D

Re: hosta happening recipies

There are weight loss forums here too?!?! :o
I just learned of the recipe forum the other day. I strictly stick to the Hosta forum. Seldom even venture to the perennial forum.

The pineapple cream pie is posted on the dessert forum.

Paul, I need the roadkill recipe! It was really good! (I may not call it that, if I take it somewhere, okay? :lol: )

Lucygoose, DH and I both liked your copper pennies too. Sorry Brian, you are out numbered!
