How are your sports and seedlings doing? Is it time to choose a name for one? Below is my list of possible names for new hostas, which have not yet been registered as far as I know. If you use one of the names and register a hosta with it, please let me know so that it can be removed from the list. Also let me know of any additions. Thank you, Don
