Oh no!!

So sad, I hope they recover quickly

It is what it is. I'm sure they will recover somewhat. Guacamole, Fragrant Bouquet, and Stained Glass took hits but the ole timeys sailed right through it like they have antifreeze in their veins (maybe they do!). Plantagenia is the last of my hostas to unfurl (orig. China) like the Oaks, Black Walnut and Locust - don't leaf out until AFTER the last freeze date!

Thanks for sharing your sorrow with us. We feel your pain. Is it better to cut off the damaged leaves right away, wait and see or anything green can help the plant later?

This was one of my favorite purchases last year (aren't they all?) Sadly, one of my last purchases from Wade & Gatton.

Oh no! I hope this is the last of the snow/frost damage for you.

ken - how my mind works - "fragrant hosta" - plantaginea - google - >> known as the old fashioned "August lily". Indeed this large hosta, Hosta plantaginea was first imported to England in 1790, and to the United States afterwards... one of the few hosta species that originated in China (as opposed to Korea and Japan). Hosta plantaginea is also the southern most naturally occurring hosta species making it more heat loving than other members of the genus... flowers are enormous by hosta standards...6+ inches long and pure white, as compared to 1-2" long and purple for most hostas...

Virtually every hosta except Hosta plantaginea has flowers that open around 7am in the morning. Hosta plantaginea on the other hand opens at 4pm in the afternoon. Educated scientists have still not figured out why this bizarre characteristic was selected for in the wild. The strong honeysuckle like fragrance of the old August Lily is absent in all other naturally occurring hosta species.

Hosta plantaginea, as the name August Lily suggests, bloom in late summer. This is in stark contrast to the majority of the H. sieboldiana based hybrids that flower from late April through June...

Another little noticed attribute of Hosta plantaginea is it's ability to reflush new foliage during the summer months. While most hostas species send up all of their foliage in the spring months, H. plantaginea is one of the only species that will continue to produce new leaves all summer long. This is a particular advantage when the original spring foliage becomes damaged or diseased, as can often occur in southern gardens.

If there are any drawbacks to Hosta plantaginea, it would be its desire to emerge much too early in the spring. Due to it's heritage in the southern part of China where spring arrived early, Hosta plantaginea tries to emerge from it's winter rest quite early...<<

Yes indeed. My damaged hostas sure enough are all/only Plantaginea and sports of including Stained Glass, Guacamole, Fragrant bouquet and Frozen Margarita.
