Hallson Gardens

Very nice plants, I too like your Smokey its the first time I ever saw one . Good luck w/ your new babies.

Thanks so much for the pictures & directions , I found about 20 cinder blocks in the barn leftover from hubby's last project. I am so excited to try this , I have already made my home depot shopping list for the ingredients & enlisted my bro for some lifting & toting help. He got so excited when I s...

Lovely plant , sometimes hostas look masculine or feminine I really think this one needs a very pretty name . Good luck w/it !

Absolutely stunning gardens ! I love every inch of all your plantings ! Could you please explain the cinder block walls you made in another post. I love yours better than the professional stacked walls & hard scapeing . You did a great job. Thank-you for sharing your pictures & ideas with us.

Sounds like all the hosta geeks had a great week-end ! Please do post pictures of all the new plants when you get a chance. I got a tiny Hacksaw & it has grown very fast & is looking plain crazy & twisty , I love it.

Thanks for posting this I am going to print it out & give my non-hosta friends copies to take home. They are always expecting me to tell them over the phone what they have & it is mostly these or ones I gave them . I have even started writing down what I gift to whom ,so my old brain can keep track ...

I have to say if I spent many years of my blood sweat & tears to create the perfect hosta , why should TC labs profit more than they already do? But there is a big difference big biz & ye olde home gardener, one plant can need division & replanting around your garden, just do not sell for profit . B...

Now My TOC has an all blue sport & its much-much darker than any Halcyon I have ever seen. I think I will do the surgery & place the same size Halcyon next to it so I can compare the color & leaf thickness as time goes on.

Yes ; some folks have "it" bad ! I had a nightmare the other night , that involved Godzilla Slugs I had to run out in my bathrobe & check out the hosta garden 6am. No big deal .....my family only had breakfast a few minutes later than usual

Very nice photo Linda , I love your GE, I have just been too chicken to try one yet myself. How old is your beautiful speciman ?

Great thread all ! I am getting any potted hostas in the ground now , moving a few that have out grown theirs spaces. Dividing up some undulutas & more common ones for gifts for my non hosta collecting friends. Watering & weeding getting ready as I want all beds done & ready for shredded leaf mulch ...

Mine still all look pretty good here in NJ, except Pineapple UPSD Cake looks ratty for some reason. I find myself really giving the wavy blues an extra long look, as I do my morning garden walk. Ones like Neptune & Winfield Blue really held there color great this year & I love the shape. Q. Josephin...

Beautiful plants ! Boy you must have had a great vacation Happy Gardening !

Wow is right cover that baby w/ a screen or something. Who knows you may be the owner of the smallest dwarf hosta ever!

I agree inside sounds like your best option Spider, good luck & stay safe.

Fantastic ! Great plant going straight to the top on my "Need it bad list" ! When will it be ready for sale?

Of my "newer" ones, I really am enjoying this year I think Neptune , Hacksaw, Orange Marmalade, Montana Moonshine.&Emerald Ruff Cut are the real eye catchers in the gardens right now. For outstanding growth Key Lime Pie & Earth Angel these two grow so fast , its like the old saying "water & jump bac...

I have some EW seedlings I planted in Feb. they have been outside in full sun since mid May . I water every other day & they are growing like weeds! So I am thinking if the seedlings can take full sun so can mom w/ no burning. Time will tell ....

Me too! Me too ! I received my trade today :bd: Judi sent a big box full of hosta & a Brunera :snow: I was so amazed at how healthy & great looking they were as the box was kinda beat up. But they made the trip & look so fresh ; as if newly dug! Thanks to everyone here that has made this a great swa...

Hi Marge , I am so glad you like the plants ! Sorry to hear of your son & grandchildren leaving the state. Our oldest son is married one state over, no grandkids for us yet, but I can just imagine how much you will miss them! But w/ all the computer technology these days you can hear from them often...
