Dear,

I have growing H.Sir Richard for a few years. It's a H.Sea Prize hybrid from Jim Schwarz, registered in 2002.

Danny, your picture at the hosta library is one of the reasons I really like this hosta.

How does it grow for you? Have you used it for a pod parent?

I think Jim is the only one that sells it and it is a bit pricey but I think i may have to get one.

Thanks

It's a good grower here in the garden. I don't have used H.Sir Richard for breeding. Last year my flowerscapes are destroyed by a hailstorm.
