It's a pleasure to see your beautiful gardens. I like them all! I would have thought these were your spring pics because everything looks so fresh. It sure doesn't look like they're having any stress from the heat. ...I really need the inspiration about this time of year, so thanks for sharing!

Beautiful!!! I really like Stonewall - I've never seen one of those before.

They look wonderful..

super.. thx for posting the pix ...

spectacular lightening show last night.. down my way .. minimal rain ...

did the storm come your way??

ken

Ken, no lightning or rain here yesterday. Today's forecast says a chance of storms, so maybe we'll get some of the weather from your way.

Looks fantastic! Congratulations!

Great looking hostas. I'm jealous that all your plants look so perfect. What did you do to scare off all the slugs?

Fantastic! Your hard work is paying off. What a great selection!

Sherry

Wow, you have the perfect home for all those great hostas. It's beautiful. You need a chair out there or maybe a hammock!

I am particularly fond of Heat Wave and Pocketful of Sunshine. I am sure I already have PFOS on my wishlist, but I think I'll add Heat Wave.

Nice pix of nice plants are always enjoyable. Thanks.

Thanks for the pictures, they look great. Lakeside prophecy is gorgeous.

NHL, I had a similar reaction, lol and in the end threw my hands up - I love them all! What great photos, Eleven of your outstanding hostas. So gratifying to view. Thank you!

Beautiful Devon Green. That one is new to me this year and shiny green leaves really stand out among the variegated ones. For so long I've gone after the edged ones, but Devon Green is a keeper! Your hostas are thriving beautifully!

Thank you for all the kind words.

Sunnywood, I don't normally have a problem with slugs here, maybe because of all the stone? Some years I find baby slugs in my potting/holding area, but the heat has kept them away. Even the mosquitoes have been kept at bay for the post part.

My main issues are tree root competition, too much shade, and squirrel vandalism. Some of my hostas are tiny compared to those others post! For years, I thought Hanky Panky was supposed to be a small plant. Oops.

I'm starting to look at it like they grow to the size of the resources available.
