HELLO! cowboy,
Olive branch has been in the back of my mind. Thanks for the picture, that will go on the wish list. I noticed silver threads and golden needles next to it, was that done to emphasize the reverse variegation?

That is a lovely specimen. You certainly do have some wonderful pics of your hostas. Thanks so much for sharing them.

I do love Olive Branch too! And I love that wet look!

The first year I had it, the bunnies ate it down to nothing!

Here it is as a 3 yr. old...ohhh...got to get the sluggo out this spring This photo was taken on June 24.

Nut House,

The planting of Silver Threads & Golden Needles is not too well planned. When I put new Hostas in it is usually where there is space and then kind of try to put Hostas that look good together. If Hostas don't look good together as they get bigger or if they get crowded, they get moved.

Great pics, I really enjoyed them.
I love my OB a couple of years ago... It is on my must get this year.

flowerchild59,

If I understand what you are saying, it is you loved your OB, but you lost it a couple of years ago and you will replace it.

I would hate to lose this one, but I, too, would definitely replace it if I lost it (after I cried for a while).
