Daily Hosta #3 - Iron Gate Supreme

[redcrx]

This is one of the "Iron Gate" series. They are a group out of crosses with plantaginea x 'Tokudama Aureonebulosa'. This is the streaked version that was the first one registered. It puts out large flowers late in the season.

And here is the second. The green hunk is a separate plant (a piece that stabilized) but is just too close.

Here is one of the Iron Gate Supreme this week with a couple of pieces that look like Iron Gate Glamour (a white edge form)

I took out the stable piece and potted it - but didn't get a photo.

Here is Iron Gate Supreme back to normal - actually there are two hunks in the photo - it got broken-up when it went into baskets to keep it from the voles. That's Searing Flame to the left of the group in this photo.

I was out getting a bunch of photos of streakers. They look their best this time of the year. This one has a stable hunk I need to address.

I need to tear up one of my IGS. It's got tons of plain green. It's in a bed with a hardy orchid that going wild and crushing a boarder of small hosta.
