Since I am convince we have seen our last frost of the spring (keep your fingers crossed) I thought I would post my First Frost.

Yes, fingers definately crossed here. We have had tons of rain since yesterday. When I got home from work this evening, I noted that Golden Tiara had grown about 2" since I last looked on Monday!! No stopping them now.

Great First Frost pic!

maybe the white centered, blue edged sport could be named 'Last Frost'

Nice pic! Beautiful hosta! Someone told me it was very much the same as "El Nino" which I already have. What do you all think?

So pretty! But I'm not as sure as you are about the last frost thing. I keep expecting one more since more and more of my hostas are popping up now and some are unfurling. I'll just keep my fingers crossed.

That one sure has a good start this spring!!

It's a beauty!!

Charla - First Frost is similar to El Nino in the coloring it ends up with. El Nino is always blue & creamy white while First Frost has the yellow margins to begin with & then changes later. Get one & you can compare the differences yourself. And you can get Sleeping Beauty [another margined Halcyon sport] too & compare the 3. Purely for scientific purposes of course.

I was banned from the junior high science fair - something about my lab partner and experiments in cross-pollination...
