Re: Welcome alexis
Thank you for the Welcome KHT. I've been a little busy and have not been able to get on here before now.
Just a quick autobiography on myself. I'm starting over and thoroughly enjoying myself. I purchased a circa 1927 Bungalow in August of 2007, and I'm slowly updating it. VERY Slowly, LOL. I started with the yard. Actually there was no yard just weeds. No plants or shrubs of any kind. The first two seasons I pulled weeds, brought in truck loads of soil and planted, planted, planted. My neighbors were thrilled. My yard was the worst in the neighborhood. Not anymore!!!
My first hosta purchases were from Lowes. I bought 10 Francee and 4 August Moon. First Lesson learned.. don't buy from box stores and almost never buy more that one of any named hosta. I now have huge Francee's coming out of my ears. And I don't have the heart to throw them away. I now have approximately 110 hosta, including the above ones. And I just purchased my first hosta from Chris. Cathedral Windows, Cinderella, Frosted Dimples, Katie Q, Queen of the Seas, Satisfaction, Singing in the Rain, And a yet to be determined one. The last is only undetermined because initially I had ordered a Ventricosa Aureomarginata when what I meant to order was a Montana Aureomarginata.
Thank you for saying hi KHT. I look forward to all the news and pictures and education I will get here.
