    CFRV, my cross FBGxWU, Marshmallow Sky which I got from Gary and lost during the move and Fran from Hollywood hostas was kind to give to me as it was plant from Gary estate.

    Sunny day, LS Pebbles and LS Maestro. I was happy LS Maestro made it because it was from LOTG and the way rhings looking may not be recovered.

    Thank you newhostalady! Plants are definitely enjoying their new gigs. Behind the fence is untouched woods with buckthorn overwhelming it ... During winter cutting buckthorn is my gym exercise 😆

    Your hostas are beautiful linda! Is LA Maestro the really blue one? Fifth one down in first group? Love it whatever it is. Are you saying LOTG is not going to stay in business? Also, do you know, are they open daily or just open house hours? I know they are on Facebook but I’m not.

    Your garden is lovely and seems peaceful! Does the fence keep the deer away?

    Debra, thanks!

    Pics were taken at sunset so colors are different.

    I think you are looking at Simply Sharon. That one I got from Mike Dammon of hostas store, check with him he usually sells few every year. People are saying it is iffy for them but for me been nothing but a trooper.

    For whatever reason it does not allow me to format writing under each pic.

    LOTG will have open days and then of course personal appt. It is on their website.

    It is a large estate and a dream to visit. Jeff had map of his hostas in his head. Just like I do 😆

    They have mapped back large portion. I am hoping inventory will be returning to some not so common plants he used to carry.

    This year they also sell reverted ones for $10 each, it is a steal.

    Sherry, thanks! It is my sanctuary, makes me at peace.

    Surprisingly deer damage so far has been minimal, mostly outside fence in late fall. We are adjucent to large foresy preserve and state park and they seems have regular deer control population.

    I have everything else though, snakes, coyotes, raccoons, ticks, mosquitoes, rabbits, chipmunk, squirrels and I think moles...

  • 3 years ago

    Even in my suburbia we have all those critters with the exception of moles and snakes. Hope you dont have moles, they make your yard hazardous!

    oops, made a mistake, it is Leather and lace, not Ephemeral lace. Can't remember who was that introduced it on this forum 5-6 years ago...but I have loved this hosta and eventually found it to grow in my garden.

  • 3 years ago

    Either way…. I love it!!!!! Lol, lol, lol

    Your hard work is clearly paying off. Your clematis are so big already! Hostas all look good, too. And why don’t I have a Sharp Dressed Man? I admire that one every time I see it.
