Great photos, Paul. Thanks for sharing.

Your Yellow Polka Dot Bikini really does have polka dots!

Lovely looking hostas, Paul. I have Radiant Edger but not Pamela Lee. If you had to choose between Pamela Lee and Radiant Star, which would you choose? That's a great increase in size in your Nancy. It's one of my favorite yellows too.

I keep getting the dove (lonely and mourning) and bikini (teeny weeny and yellow polka dot) hostas mixed up. The ones you've pictured here look like good choices.

My Ripple Effect has taken on some good size this year, which surprises me because it's at the eastern edge of my problem bed. The leaves are much bigger this year.

Paul,
I agree with Irawon and yourself that Nancy is a super spring yellow addition to the garden. Even though it changes to lighter green later on, I still appreciate its appearance. I love the waves and the shine. The leaves have great substance and for those with smaller gardens (like myself) the compact size is a positive. This is a great solid (colour) hosta, that I warmly recommend to other hosta growers.
I bought mine last season as a small plant after seeing it in a friendâÂÂs garden. IâÂÂd seen pictures on line, but it didnâÂÂt grab my attention in the same way as it did that day. HereâÂÂs a couple of pics that I took moments ago - still a ways to go before it grows to the size of yours, but now it has four eyes. IâÂÂve heard it can take a little time to settle, but when it does, it really takes off. I guess that you would have no complaints on that score, judging by the numbers you posted!

bk, were they itsy bitsy teeny weeny?

irawon and BChosta, thanks for your comments and pictures.

I have both Pamela Lee and Radiant Star in quite a bit of shade so may be different in a sunnier spot. Pamela Lee will darken a bit, pic below.
