Thank you for the photos. Each and every leaf looks like a piece of art. Bravo!

My Orange Marmalade has never looked that good. It's progressively shrinking. Too bad because it's a real beauty. Your pic makes me want to buy another one and try again.

Gorgeous! I'm with Tim on Orange Marmalade - mine is limping along. Maybe I should try moving it,

Picture perfect!

Beautiful photos of beautiful hostas.

I can't say it any better than everyone here, so I've "liked" each comment...sort of like an exclamation mark! Totally drool-worthy perfect pictures.

Such a great time of year when the hosta look so Spring fresh and lush!

Cool pic of Snake Eyes...

I admire anyone who can grow a gorgeous Orange Marmalade. Seems like I am not alone in that regard. I'm always amazed how well hosta grow in pots because the roots grow down instead of out.

Thanks for the complimentary feedback.

DelawareDonna, I haven't done anything special with Orange Marmalade - I guess, for now, it's happy in its environment, but I can't claim any special expertise!

Dave, Spartacus is in its third year. Purchased as a rather small single-eyed plant that I nearly put back because of its lack of size. It did nothing the first year - not even a leaf was added (and it only had 3 or 4!). The following year, it was substantially bigger, though just two eyes. This year, two shoots again, but much fatter and the leaves are way bigger and more mature.

It is definitely one that I would replace if I lost it. I ordered the Sea Gulf Stream (which I also really like - even though, it too, has started out very small) because I think great genes run in the family!

Sea Gulf Stream and Snake Eyes both are now on the list !

Having seen several pics of Spartacus posted this Spring I'm going to order another, haven't the patience to wait for my little one to grow big and strong.

I too, lack patience, and if a plant doesn't earn its keep over a period of time, I send it on to pastures new (a friend with good, rich soil) to see if a spell in the ground can galvanize it to grow! Just passed on Blue Ivory and Lakeside Kaleidoscope among others - two that I like, but both have failed to thrive.

If you do try another Spartacus I hope you get a stronger grower.

BC

Your hostas and your photography skills are excellent! Thanks for sharing.

It seems like a lot of us wish for a better looking OM than we have. I call mine a pipsqueak, but that hasn't motivated it to grow any bigger yet.

They all look really good, I love Spartacus and LS Coalminer - I don't have those two...yet

Beautiful

These hosta of yours are doing great! I love the look of Raspberry Sundae and the Queen of the Seas picture perfect leaf shot. And the drops, just make it even better, in my opinion, of course!
