    Thunderbolt. I moved it 3 yrs ago. It was struggling and was 3 eyes. Now , it is only 1 eye. But it is doing much better. The roots have triple is size and therefore I think that it is a stronger plant now . I do believe it is on its way to be awesome .



    Twilight




    Teaspoon- new in 2021. I bought this little cutie because I saw it here in the ABC's.


    Happy Friday everyone!🕸💗☃❄💖

    Paula, I really cracked up over the witness protection plan and Pux. Phil and his wife!! 😂🤣😆

    Saija, that Tic Toc is a cutie!

    Old_dirt, both Touch of Class and Twilight look very happy in your garden!

    Shadow, I had one good sized eye of Thunderbolt that completely went south in two years. I had to toss it! I hope yours continues to do well…..that Teaspoon is a nice small one.

    Utog, nice shots of all your hostas…… I have always admired Tokudama A. I can’t wait for my Tattoo to get bigger like yours……The Shining is lovely!

    My Ts:
    TWB is completely reverted.

    Not sure what what happened there:

    Paula Phyllis is hilarious!

    Saija Tickle Me Pink seems a little testy, mine has had a rough go. Yours looks good.

    Great looking Touch of Class & Twilight everyone.

    utog Tokudama aureonebulosa & Tattoo are wonderful.

    Debra another nice Tattoo. It is a shame TWB reverted but it is still cute. I like Teatime.



    Teaspoon

    I was happy to get The King planted but it got damaged so no pic this year.

    Tijuana Brass late spring and autum, Tiny Gems on left of Gemstone, and Tokudama flavicircinalis in bloom. My Teaspoon and Tea at Bettys were not as photographed this year.

  • 4 years ago

    This is my brand-new Tootie Mae, which is probably the single worst name for anything in history. Still, I have high hopes and was pleasantly surprised with quality of Unique Hosta's mail-order.


    Peren.all, your Tom Schmidt is early in the pic, but the leaf design is and color is elegant. That is going to be a nice looking hosta.

  • 4 years ago

    anyone else sing along to I ain't nothing but a groundhog?..I couldn't help it 😂..

    what a Treat to see the T hosta while my garden is covered with snow..

    all of the Touch of Class look perfect..

    Laurie..weeks ago looking online I think I saw Teaspoon described as "very small"..not yours!..it's a big beautiful mound of adorable leaves..

    my Tiny Tears..which I would describe as "very small"..😂


  • 4 years ago

    Teatime, Tom Terrific, Tea at Bettys with Tom Terrific, and Tattoo in late afternoon

  • 4 years ago

    Nw, how much snow did you get? Your Tiny Tears are sweet.

    Peren, I love your Teaspoon!! Especially in bloom!!

    debra..we heard 8 inches..enough to cover everything pretty well..

  • 4 years ago

    Saija..our forecast is dry for a few days but then we have more snow too 🙁..it is a problem where to put it..🤔

    I worry about breaking my shrubs and small trees..

  • 4 years ago

    Florida today. Nothing over 60 high and no lower than 40. Rained earlier. It will be the same all week


  • 4 years ago

    Paula....witness protection is one of my favorites!

    Saija....great Tickle me Pink.....I had it, liked it, lost it!

    utog....your Tokudama flavicircinalis is a beauty. Another I had until my dog dug it up!!

    On to the Ts. Can spring be far behind? Who knows anymore!

    Paula is that fence for crocodiles? my dw seems to think they roam the neighborhoods eating small children. lol

  • 4 years ago

    Thanks utog!

  • 4 years ago

    Paula, I loved the missing Roomba, sometimes I walk around the house calling for it.



    Thunderbolt - 6 years old



    Touch of Class

    I only have a few to show.



    Touch of Class. Doing OK, but think it could do better. Moved it into the new raised bed in 2020. I usually find there isn't much change in the following year after moving, so I am hoping that this year it will show me its appreciation for placing it in some nice soil.



    Titanium in August



    Tsugaru Komachi. I got this at a hosta nursery. That was how it was labelled. But on the HL all the pictures look different! But then there is a Tsugaru Komachi Kifukurin. But it doesn't have much information. In fact a picture by Ian Scroggy shows the same picture for both of those hosta. I guess I am not the only one confused!

  • 4 years ago

    Witness protection program cracks me up!

    Utog and Debra, your doing so well with your Tattoos!

    Utog, Tijuana Brass is distinct looking!

    Peren.all, you should get a medal for the best Teaspoon ever! Tropical Dancer has unique looking leaves.

    We got 33 cm of snow in one day two weeks ago. It was one of the highest ever recorded in our area. It was chaos for our transit system and any cars that were travelling. Don't know how people coming home from work managed to get home. Since then, we've had a bit more snow and cold temperatures so the snow is here to stay for a while! No spring in sight!

    Thank you nhl. Titanium is really nice and all I can say about Tsugaru Komachi is that HL says it is "quite variable". It will certainly be one to watch over the years. I got that crazy amount of snow too! Not that unusual for me but really not that normal for you, right?

  • 4 years ago

    Snow is OK. It's the freezing rain followed by lots of snow that bothers me. Took me 3 days to completely shovel my driveway. The snow blower was useless. I ended up using my metal garden shovel to clear most of it. Chipping up big sections of icebergs. Good thing I didn't need to go anywhere.

    Beth - very nice Thunderbolt and only 6 years old \sarca. I've always admired it, but heard it was a tough one to grow. Also, pretty sure that's not Touch of Class. You have such nice big Hosta to show us. Hopefully, mine will look as nice in a few more years.

    mbug - as always, I like all of yours. I'm not usually a fan of green and white, but Tambourine is a winner. Tenryu was on my list before I moved to oHIo and I still don't have it. Yours is making me look for room.

    Those Tattoo pics also have me looking. My Tickle Me Pink has been slow to fill in. Hopefully the 4th year will be the charm.

    Tangerine Tango doing the tango

    and later in the season. Almost looks like two different plants with the wide center and the more streaky parts. It may be trying to revert to Orange Marmalade.


    Tea at Bettys is filling in nicely for a small fragrant plant.


    Teacher's Pride is growing slowly for me. Hopefully this will be the leap year for it.


    Tequila Sunrise not looking very yellow nor red-legged in the middle of June. Perhaps it needs more sun, but I still like it here anyway.


    The King with some early yellow edges on the second flush while the first flush edge has gone green before the green cream emerges.


    Toy Soldier in the middle of the front row and Tick Tock to the right of it.


    Tidewater


    Touch of Class next to June


    I ordered Tropical Dancer online but was sent Tropical Storm so they refunded me for TD and let me keep TS. Lucky me I found a good sized Tropical Dancer at W&Gs going out of business sale. Should be bouncing back after planting in mid-late 2019 but slow growing for me so far.


    and the Tropical Storm freebie


    Twice as Nice was new last year


    as was Twinkle Little Star

    Steve - Great and not so common T's. May I ask how you manage to post so many pictures in one posting? I can seldom post more than 3 or 4 at once. Do you resize them?

    Whatever you do, they are all great!

    last modified: 4 years ago

    old_dirt..just so you know..my experience with posting pics is the same as yours..if I had as many varieties as some here I'd be posting 10 comments per letter 😂..

    I use Gardenweb..Houzz gives me problems..

    steve..do you use Houzz?..I'm using a Samsung android phone..I think most here have more sophisticated equipment..could make a difference???..

  • 4 years ago
    last modified: 4 years ago

    I use gardenweb on my laptop and resize the photos to ~600KB or less.


    Another trick that I haven't needed to use lately is to post then edit to add more pics.

    I see Touch of Class has already appeared several times, but here's one more. She was a newbie last summer, arriving with the 3 large leaves, with the baby leaf sprouting after a couple months.
