I have eyes!

Post by Tkzone7 »

Unfortunately we moved and had to leave a lot of hostas (I didnt think the house would sell as fast as it did.) I had several potted up in anticipation though. I have eyes and lots of them. So far Olive Branch has the most with around 15. Funny thing is my GE must have gotten turned over because almost all of the potting mix is gone and low and behold it has 2 eyes coming up.

Me too! I potted up all mine last fall, and this morning I actually looked at them and all but a couple have at least one eye up! There was one I missed potting up and it is up with 6 eyes, and has about 15 more you can just see the tops of :D

Me too and in the soil too- and starting to peak trought the top of grit I added like small hills in the garden to protect them, when they first started one month ago- It is too early here, a forecast sat slightly frost in the weekend :cry:

Well, Sagae's eyes are showing (kind of hard to hide such a beast), but today they're being covered in ice pellets!

I can't even go out and look today for eyes.....we have snow again. :( I think it's too early for my area anyway. I usually don't see eyes til the first or second week in April. :???:
