Northern Exposure

Hey Hosta Lovers. Remember Me, Zoe. My human says she only has 1 "N" .

She says she has to get more Hostas with the letter N.

LOL she says she is going to buy more ......she needs more. hahaha!

Hi Sam here..... I told Zoe not to dig out Night before Christmas. But she would not listen.

Neptune

My only N............sigh _ _

Hope you enjoy your day off Paula! Imagine waking up to those eyes, so funny!

Nice Neptunes.

Beth sorry your NE is having a hard time of it but your NBC is is looking very happy!

Lol, Shadow, love your garden “helpers”! No N photos for me, will enjoy all of yours today.

Sherry

sunnywood Nancy Gill is such a beauty, I always admire it.

Shadow another nice Neptune. Zoe and Sam are wonderful even if Zoe causes a bit of trouble lol!

I wish Denis (mountainy man) would join in. His nigrescens is legendary. If you see this I hope your studies are going well.

Nightlife

Northern Exposure

peren, funny that you mention Denis, I also thought of him just a few days ago. I always loved the pictures from his cottage garden and the cats...

After a certain age you gotta think of something to do with those Playboy Bunny ears.

Night Before Christmas

tj

mae great looking Nightlife.

Karin Needlepoint & Nancy are really interesting. Yes, at least windymess let us know she is busy and I assume the same for Denis.

Steve D. even a young nigrescens is impressive. Denis grew his in a pot if I recall correctly and it was massive.

LOL Kathy ain't that the truth! It is a good thing I did not have a mouth full of coffee when I read that! Nice NBC.

Ah tj I was hoping you would show your NBC - it is what we all aspire to!

Paula, thanks for waking up to get us started. I hope you were able to go back to sleep.

Beth & tj, big and beautiful NBCs!

I had a lovely NBC until I decided to move it due to overcrowding. I can't blame it on Zoe, I did it to myself. (Adorable dogs, Shadow!) NBC has hated both new spots so no pics. I have Niagara Falls in an awkward spot, so no pic. I need more "Ns."

Neptune is stepping up to represent the Ns.

in August w/ flowers

.....and just because, a bee making use of a hosta flower

Only one N for me...another NBC,,,,,,Tempt me with yours!

Night Before Christmas

I must start by saying everyone’s Neptunes look great. I like seeing the difference in the color depending on where it is grown.

beth, I hope my NBC grows up looking like yours and tsugajunkie’s. Mine is pathetic in comparison

shadow, love your dogs.....you can always buy another NBC, not a new Zoe....though it should come out of her allowance to be fair :-). You do have a lovely Neptune.

sunnywood, that Miss Nancy Gill is one hot hosta!

mae, the color your Nightlife is very intriguing....is it green?? Is it blue??

peren.all, your Niagara Falls is so lovely

Karin, omg there is another hosta in the absolute color I love....Nancy is s gorgeous

steve, I want both of yours.Nightshirt ——wow, that color——-and the Nigrecens, it’s got the legs of a model

tsugajunkie what can I say? Your NBC is outstanding

sandyslopes, loved the bee in the Neptune flower

mbug, your NBC is just beautiful in your yard

My Ns include NOIDS too. Not sure if that is OK or not but what the hey. Maybe I’ll learn something! The only N I have is NBC. The rest are NOIDS

Great jokes Paula.

Nemesis

Sunnywood your Neptune is growing beautifully. Maybe one day mine will take off. Try a different spot for your Night Before Christmas mine had a hard time until I moved it under a pine tree with morning sun. I love how it looks nice.

Shadow great pictures of your fur babies.

peren.all your Niagra Falls is looking amazing.

Steve I love the upright shape of Nigrescens, I would like to see a mature specimen of it too.

sandyslopes, I love your shot of Neptune. Makes me remember why I purchased it.

I am going to join the "Neptune" club. My only N.

Beautiful Neptune, nhl!

Dave please tell us a little about Nemesis, not much on the web.

Throwing my two N's in also. I have/had a Noah's Rainbow but I guess I need to rename it Green Gold.

Neptune

Night Before Christmas

Nemesis is one of a quite long list of Star Trek related hostas raised and introduced by Dirk Dupre a Belgian hybridiser.

This list includes Spock's Ears, Neelix and Dilithium Crystal.

I bought mine direct from him in around 2012.

He had his own website and operated mail order.

A few years ago he gave up with Hostas and specialized in Heucheras.

The website is down as far as I can see and I have no idea what he is doing now.

I've thought about trying to collect as many of his raisings whilst they are still around but haven't got around to it yet.

Nifty fifty

Nancy

Nancy is beautiful!

Both stunning Linda!
