What is eating my Striptease?

Does anyone have any idea what may be eating my Striptease? I never see anything on it during the day or an night when I am out slug hunting. I have seen a few earwigs in the garden but not on this hosta.

When I bought this a couple of years ago, it was labeled Big Daddy. Could someone please tell me it's real name?

What is wrong with my Fried Green Tomatoes?

Does anyone have any idea why my Fried Green Tomatoes is so ugly. Frost damage? Damaged before emerging from the ground? The dreadded virus? I planted it last summer.

I bought it from someone that has a huge hosta garden, and was selling some of the overflow(I guess you could call it). I was visiting my brother that lives about 100 miles from me and happen to drive passed the place.

I guess I will wait to see what it grows up to be.

Thanks

I went hosta shopping today and came home with one labeled Lakeside Symphony, but I don't think it is. Can anyone give me any ideas what it might be? It has dark green leaves with creamy yellow margins. The leaves look like they have some rippling. The bigger leaves are 7" L x 4" W and the plant is ...

This is probably a stupid question, but I'll ask anyway.

Will moles hurt my hostas? I thought they ate the slugs and worms. Should I be finding a way to get rid of the annoying tunnel diggers?

Thanks

I have had this one in my garden for over 5 years, I think. The plant is about 34"W x 16"H. The leaves are about 7-8" long x 6-7" wide. Anyone know what it is? Thanks. http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j296/kittenann/th_uknown2.jpg Here is a close up of a leaf. http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j296...

That would be my luck. I see them in the store and think they look coooool so I buy them and plant them here and there. This year is the first year that I started to try to learn the names. I went around my gardens and took pictures to figure out what I have. I figured out either the stores around h...

Can anyone please let me know what the name of the hosta in the middle? I believe the one in the top right of the photo is Blue Angel. The one on the right edge was labeled Medio Varigatia. I think it is Undulata Albomarginata. The one on the left edge is Golden Tiara. Clickable thumbnail. http://i8...

Thanks for the welcomes. I believe I am becoming a Hostaholic. I live in the middle of MI's lower pennisula. I have grown a few hostas here and there in my gardens for a few years, but this year I got bit by the bug and can't get enough of the hostas. I am trying to figure out the names of the ones ...
