I am happy to report that my package arrived safe and sound yesterday, and was waiting for me after a really tough long day at work.
vawildflower (Cindy) sent me four awesome hostas that are very special:
Stargate, a streaked version of Flower Power, so it will have fragrant flowers...
London Fog, the all-speckled sport of Allegan Fog, a very cool one.
Mango Tango, which I have had my eye on for a year or two, very pretty colors in that one, looks like a reverse of Stitch in Time.
and Savannah Supreme, a streaked form of Savannah, another fragrant one. They are all beauties!
Thanks so much, Cindy!
And thanks to Mike (Steg) for doing the organizing of this year's trade, and to Chris/Brian for having all of this!

Re: Secret Trade Received!! 2010
Sorry to my trade partner, (I still don't know who you are). We are on a family vacation from Minnesota to San Dieago via many Nat'l Parks. My mother-in-law received the plants (since we've had limited contact, I am not sure what you sent, but Thank you, I know that I'll love them). She has potted them up for me, so I will definately post a better Thank You when I return (after the 4th).
Thanks again.
Thanks again.

Re: Secret Trade Received!! 2010
My package came today! it was like Christmas for me! Judy Pohorsky of Cedar Rapids sent me a small but filled box! She sent me Risky Business, I don't have , and love it! Toy Soldier, I have Soldier boy so this is also new to me, My Darling, also new, she looks dainty, Little Wonder, Green Eyes - two small hostas, neither of which I have. Also Judy sent me Lungwort! I don't have a single one in my garden, so I am very excited to have this companion plant. Thank you so much for your generosity! I have them soaking, and will plant them tomorrow! Mary (I don't think you could tell that I am excited)

Re: Secret Trade Received!! 2010
Finally home from a 3.5 week family vacation from MN to San Diego and back (including 8 national parks and Disney and Sea World!
I want to thank Allen (allhuskrred) for his great package. My MIL potted the plants up while I was out. I received nice divisions of Summer Lovin, Rise and Shine, First Frost and Fantasy Island. I think that my favorite will be Rise and Shine.....I do like the yellows and pie-crusted edges.
Thanks so much and sorry for the delay in my response.
