Some nice specimens! I especially like your furry garden buddy.

Sherry

She’s taking good care of the garden while you are gone! Perhaps a thank you gift is In order?

Nice pictures, I also think a thank you gift is in order.

I like what I see. Your wife sending you pictures is the next best thing to being there yourself!

Lots of good pics! That's great she's taking them for you because you can miss a lot over 11 days in spring when the hostas are leafing out and changing so fast. Soon they'll grow big enough to touch leaves. ....It looks like the blue frog is guarding its own hosta. Your Iris are ahead of mine but peonies look about the same. .....Cute furry faces!

I thoroughly enjoyed the garden tour your wife provided- so many beautiful hostas! Very nice pics and I really have land-envy right about now...

Well, I got to come home early, so no more pics from my wife. I didn't even know what a calibrachoa was, so there's no way we have one. Then I looked and sure enough, she bought one for herself. I guess she's tired of looking at leaves, lol. She loves telling me, "Oh that's just another green Hosta" or "that one looks just like this one (except for the pointy leaves and ruffled edges)". Yesterday she was comparing the "sunny" Fog Light to the "shady" Fog Light and when I told her they where the same plant she says, "How would I know that? One is just another boring green while this one is more interesting with different color veins and ...".

The boring one:

And yes the blue frog is protecting Miss Suzy from my furry friends.

Beautiful plants! And that smiling pooch is adorable!

Your hostas and garden are beautiful! I like the furry addition too :)

Great pictures. Does furkid have a name, or just unknown/noid?

Mister Beau is the white doodle and Maggie is the cinnamon.

Such great pics! Love the twosome on the chairs--we have to cover all of our furniture since it would be coated in white hair from my Ms Maggie and Ms. Snowball her feline friend. Great million bells, I got Tropical Sunrise last year--it looked great until late summer. I usually do a hanging basket of 3 or 4 as well as mix it into other containers. So which are your favorite hostas this year?

Great bunch of hostas. Nice work. Congratulations!

Such an exciting time of year, beautiful hostas! Nice of DW to think of you.

steve..how fun for you to see the garden thru your wife's eyes..that blue frog is FUN and makes Miss Suzy look even brighter..

Thanks all. The King is exceeding my expectations this year (and I loved it last year). One Last Dance is looking great in it's first spring, and I'm loving Fog Light too. I've taken a ton of pics since I got home, but I'm too busy in the garden to post very many.
