Do you know who this hosta seedling is named after?
Started by seed in November and now is a very healthy 3 eyed plant.

Yes, its one from the Ruh seeds collection.
They all have grown quite well but only kept a couple.

You should have relabelled your pic. Would have made it tougher. I'm still gonna guess Warren G. Harding.
Nice strong seedling.

That is very pretty! I still like all green hostas. The leaves are extraordinary!
