One half hour before sunrise and one half hour after sunset are known as the 'golden hour' for taking pictures, but I don't think there is a bad time to take a good picture for you, mbug.

Nice pictures. Your plants are very well grown. Will be exciting to see the little seedling grow up.

mbug, you have some beautiful hosta. That clump of Blue Cadet is very rich looking. And I love Warwick Comet. Looks like the leaves are very thick - a trait I value.

Mug, your hostas are so beautiful and pristine that I have to ask if you are troubled by slugs or other chewers. If you are, you obviously are staying on top of it.

This year I've found more little wee snails than slugs but seem to catch them before they can do damage. it reminds me, when I forget, to sprinkle more bait. :-)

All exceptional but WC is really a bright one and it looks to have good substance. Your Whirlwind is very lovely. Cup of Grace is in short - stunning! Gorgeous rich green colour, shape of leaf. Who says green is boring???

What's that pretty plant under your Whirlwind -- mukdenia?

Your hostas are lovely, every one of them. I'm not familiar with Strawberry Parfait ...it really is a bright one. Does it stay that colour all season? Always on the look-out for ones that retain their gold colour..although I don't mind them changing to chartreuse.

Roxanna......yes that's Mukdenia. Hasn't developed the red around the edge yet this year. Have several mixed in different areas. If you like it check out 'Mukgenia' — a new cross of Mukdenia and Bergenia.Great plant!

This is a small one I just got....

Jo....two years without slugs....don't know where they went and I ain't asking! Cup of Grace is a spectacular hosta. Seems to get better looking daily!

ira.....second year for Strawberry Parfait...stayed pretty yellow last year as a small one. Supposed to "fade to a yellow-white". We'll see.

The mukdenia is supposed to turn red during summer. I split mine two years ago and they are still in pots. Two years ago one had glorious fall colour. The regular one is planted, quite large and keeps Sagae company. Love the muks!

Thanks for the info, mbug. Love the mukdenia. Tried to grow it twice without success.
