A couple of questions for the foodies here.

I've been seeing this in the catalogues and hope to give it a try. It's called 'White Feather' and changes from white to pale green.

made a trade for some but mine didn't come up true to form, they have a narrow border of green....

as to dwarves, I have one hosta that developed as a sport of an un-named one I have (or perhaps grew from a self seed).....it's three years old and only three inches tall....

we have a lot of hosta collectors around here....it isn't unusual to see people selling their cullings at garage sales in the spring....

thanks, so do I, one of the countries largest hosta growers is in our hometown...and many other nurseries....end of season sales are fantastic around here....a few years ago I got 40 pots of Asiatic lilies for a dollar each......I also have some heirloom perennials......one fern leafed peony I can personally attest is over fifty years old, I remember helping my dad plant it and I transplanted it here when they sold the farm.....a clump of iris from an abandoned farm house that I expect is over a hundred years old.....and a hosta division I swapped with a friend who's grandma had them at least seventy years......

Fantastic! I put in a new garden last spring that I have not photographed yet...my property was purchased with azalea and rhododendrons that are about 30 years old...I had not known much about shrubs until I purchased this place...one of the really cool advantages to my yard are how well ferns; tulips, lilies; hostas and the like do here...Have you used any sedum varieties in your yard?
