I really like this hosta. I planted it under a limbed up pine tree in 2011. It was fairing well in August and into fall despite the fact that some of my hostas had been assaulted by cutworms.

Ed, your Autumn Frost is lovely. How old is it?
Re: Autumn Frost ...post your pics
I got two of them in 2011. This is the bigger one. They are both planted next to a First Frost.

Same group as above with Autumn Frost and Touch of Class coming into flower.
Also in the photo are Toy Soldier top/center and Goldbrook Glimmer just above the right Autumn Frost. At the bottom/right is a Miss Linda Smith trying to get into the picture.
The azalea and weigela at the top/right took the brunt of large tree branches falling during a storm saving this cluster.
