Wow, how long has that been growing there? Mine has finally put on some growth. Planted in 2016 in a sunny after 2:00 PM spot and not disturbed since. Smaller in 2017. Original size in 2018, a little bigger last year. Original $4 special

and now this year. How long until the margins get really wide like yours? I suppose I should just be happy it keeps growing.

Yes, it has a little frost damage on the lower leaf.

Just guessing 6-7 years old. It will be pretty big when it all spreads out. It is always the last thing up. Chopped out some roots to make room for it expecting it's own roots would grow under the pine's. My only other suggestion would be to try a little hawk guano. lol

I must be lucky on my DQ. It gets all the goldfish pond poop and quite a bit of sun and terrible clay soils. That being said it probably will die this year

I hope not, looks nice. My soil is sandy which the hosta seem to like,

Here's my Dream Queen. Some years back I split it into two, and for some reason there's a baby DQ there. No idea where that came from. It's maybe 12 years old. It's very nice, but I've been disappointed at its slow growth. I'll die a natural death before this thing reaches maturity. It's been moved several times. Here it gets some direct morning light followed by lots of ambient light the rest of the day.

Here's another pic that shows its size. Behind it are some very mature Plantagenias, and to its right is a sorta-mature Elegans. Newer Patriots are nextled in front.

The Dream Queens look like first cousins of the Elegans. They achieve the same height. I think they produce similar blooms at the same time.

This is what myhostas.be says about it

Similar to 'Thunderbolt' & 'Dream Weaver'.
Halfway in between two outstanding hostas - the all-blue 'Elegans' and the finicky gold-centered 'Great Expectations' - lies another of our queenly hostas.
It could get big.
