That is a great looking plant Danny. The name is excellent as well!

It has been a while since you have talked about H. "Watermark". Has that one been successfully TC'd and heading out into the market?

Hi Danny,

Sky Dancer is one of my favorite Hostas. It is a slow grower at our altitude but I hope that eventually it will develop those beautiful ruffles! Will you have the streaker tissue cultured? it is fantastic!

Very pretty. Is that one widely available? Might take awhile for it to show up in Canada.

Hi Danny - I was looking for H. Watermark in the forum today and came across this listing which wasn't in the master list yet. So I added it.
