Getting ready to divide another clump of Olive Branch

Post by Chris_W »

This is my last old clump of Olive Branch, probably about 10 years old growing at the edge of our wetlands. It is pretty big and I hated to touch it but it just isn't something we never expect to see on the wholesale market. I've always been a fan of the subtle colored hostas.

I think we got our Olive Branch from you. Still love it. (Stephen especially is a fan, and would probably put it in his top 20.) It's in the same bed with your Heart's Delight, which is growing great. Need to get a pic to the Hosta Library on that one, which is showing someone else's unregistered plant instead of yours.
