Nice F photos everyone.

Fragrant Dream was added in the fall.

Sherry

Fruit Loop 6-1-24....Great mini. Thick leaves and big bright boarder. Like it a lot.

Funny Mouse.....love the blooms on all the Mouse family hosta.

Ann, are you seeing weather yet? So far, nothing happening here (about 40 miles northeast of Indy.)

indianagardengirl..pics about 5pm..looking out from my recliner and from the kitchen window..it's not a blizzard but I'm glad I don't need to leave..😂

Laurie..I like your Fire and Ice too..

mbug..I was afraid of Fire and Ice (the white tissue)..I never bought one..after what you said I probably won't 😂..your Firn Line looks great..

Sherry..I don't have photos of all of my hostas either 🤦‍♀️..I still say my picture total has increased!..but I have room for improvement..I had issues with Houzz awhile back..only diehard hosta gardeners can endure Houzz 😜..

Frances Williams

Snow just started for me around 7pm. We will see what tomorrow looks like, but i think i dodged most of it.

Both those illusions are good ones! A puppy didn’t sneak into your house over Christmas, did it? They’re very good at moving slippers around.

I’m so glad that all of you having Houzz problems didn’t give up!

Farewell Party

Fire and Ice

Frances Williams

Forgot one.....

Flemish Sky

Ann, gonna TRY

harder taking photos again. I have a few more from last season than the previous few. 🤞🏻😀

Sherry

Lots of fabulous F's everyone!

Foxfire Palm Sunday - May have to take out that solid piece next year.

Fire and Ice

Francee - One of three

Fire Island - The burned out ends got worse later in the year.

Forbidden Fruit

Fortunei Hyacinthina

Third try……I am loving all these Fs, but it’s too late to comment!

I have Fire and Ice, but apparently have no pic of it….

late summer

debra

Sherry..we took a step in the right direction!..our pictures increased from last year!..

too bad organizing pictures was better on my old phone..🙁

Forgot two. Sorry it’s a crummy cropped pic.

debra

snow!!!..in the 3rd pic..above the steps..see a single stem sticking up?..that's a Venusta stem!..

Everyone, beautiful Forbidden Fruits, Fire Islands and Fragrants!

Beth, your Fragrant Blue is so big!

Ann, your Fox is so cute! Firn lime is so pretty, maybe pot it this year to see if it increases the size.

Laurie, I have always loved your Fingerprint, it’s lovely……also awesome Frances Williams!

Saija and Mike, the Frisians are terrific!

Mike, I love your First Frost, beautiful color and Fog Light has such a lovely soft color. I wonder if you mis labeled
F. Albomarginata….. Albomarginata should have white borders. Check out Peren’s pics above. Yours is also very cupped and upright……. Not like the fortunei leaves.

Shadow, your two Frances Williams are amazing! Great color and size!

Sandyslopes, Farwell Party is a pretty chartreuse….. I never heard of that one. Flemish Sky is a real standout….those beautiful leaves, love them!

Old_dirt, very nice Foxfire Palm Sunday! The only one in the post so far. What does it revert to, the solid color is pretty.

debra

Found my last three Fs!

Wow Ann, you got more snow than we did up north. Just a dusting here.

Sherry

Sherry..it feels like a lot!..my ground looks high!..it's not a problem when you're retired and can do what you want 😂..

at least for me Lol..my husband's out front using the snowblower..

Saija Frisian Pride is lovely.

Mike it is tough getting the right mix of sun/shade for Fire and Ice. Not enough sun and it will be weak but too much it will burn. You have so many beauties that I am sure you could grow it to perfection if you chose to try again. I knew it could be difficult to place and it was dumb luck on my part! Fragrant Queen is terrific. I think I tried Fruit Loops as a cereal once as a kid and never again but I would like H. Fruit Loops!

Sherry Forbidden Fruit is a great one. Happy to see you got Fragrant Dream and that you took more pics this year!

Ann that amount of snow is a dusting for me lol! I think your only problem with F and I would be finding enough sun for it.

Shadow great looking FW.

Lisa Farewell Party is a new one for me too. I like it!

old_dirt very nice FPS!

Thank you Debra! What a great bunch you have! Another lovely Fruit Loops. I really must keep my eyes open for it. I think Mike meant to label it F. Aureomarginata.

peren...No question, I like Fruit Loops the Hosta much better than FLoops the cereal.

Fire and Ice is always a one and done for me.

Debra... Fog Light is labeled correctly. It's been coming up with the light soft coloring, then yellowing up later on. I like the early color the best.

The one I posted was from early may. The one below is late June.

Fog Light

on the news tonight..I live in the Eagle Creek area of Indianapolis..we got 10 inches!..not as much as some of you get..but it's a lot for me!..

interesting..only 4 snows in a day this big since 1931..

debra - I am always unclear about Revert & Sport. This is what the HL says about FPS - " A seedling of an open pollination cross between pod parent H. 'Independence Day' and an unknown pollen parent.." It also lists an all yellow sport as Good Friday.

Does that mean it will not have any named reversion? I think if I take out the solid yellow piece I will call it Good Friday.

Ann, ten inches of snow in one day is a lot. I'm more surprised if it could melt in one day!

I thought this storm was the March 2018 storm but the photos say April 21 2021..the plants were up..the trees had leaves..the snow came and covered everything..then the sun came out and the snow melted in a day..it was bizarre..

The photo is really strange when you can see two completely different images!
