about the peat.. I had a couple of truck loads of this brought in and used alot of it in the back yard and it actually holds water and I have issues with sinking and heaving and have lost some this year do to sinking (alot of fairy ringing), too much rain. but out front that same peat tilled in with...

I havent been here in a few years, was too busy with work and dogs and Im still very busy and at a loss for whats going on in my front yard. I once had over 200 different hosta probably more than 100 just in the front. Year after year I lose Hosta. They start out nice,then they fail to thrive.They g...

I was just out looking at different nurseries yesterday here in Lapeer and noticed a Pauls Glory with tiny little freckles all over the leaves, I told my DH that I was going to say something but he reminded me of a time that I told another seller of virused hostas about the S&S possibly having a vir...

I had my DH build that a couple of yrs ago as my collection grew I needed the space and shade. Especially since the tree (ash) at the south end of the arbor has those ash borers in it and is dying at the top = leaving my hostas without shade. Its $1000. to remove the tree :( but the afternoon sun st...

You guys are and always have been the greatest.... .....especially at identifying our unknowns. Thanks
I will be posting more!

OK I do (bought) Garden Party. Im thinking this is it. Ive lost alot of Hostas from the winter freeze over the last 3 yrs . I once had Garden Treasure....remains to be seen if I still do :( But I think who ever said GP is right. Compared to the pics on HL they look the same. Just not real bright in ...

Hey just a thought.........Could it be Garden Treasure? I bought that a couple of years ago...Ill have to check my list.

My old Glory faded into the garden a couple of years ago. Rascal is on the other side of the yard. I thought the same thing that it looks simular to rascal. The other 2 mentioned I dont have.
Thanks....and keep trying

steg, yeah there is some open spots. I need to move more. In the 2nd picture (actually its in all 3 but you can see it more in 2) is Green Piecrust. Its huge! It is actually hinding 2-3 other hostas.Guardian Angel is behing it,along with Millies Memories and another smaller yellow hosta. And I think...

They love this soil....but I really need to spread out.

jgh- oh youre good. I do believe that who that is. I thought for a minute EA was in a different spot, thanks to caliloo pictures I know know that the name of that Hosta is First Frost . But Yes I did put Earth Angel there 2 yrs ago.

2 down
thank you
Pat

You know what........tomorrow I;ll take another picture and this time Ill get one close up of a leaf. This isnt a great picture and a couple of the leaves are ragged from the pup. I do have Peace.

I moved Hostas last year and cant remember whos who and where.

I read somewhere that mothballs in their tunnels help?

Yep, that did help. Thanks.

I was at a nursery the other day and seen several Hanky Panky with one eye of the hosta a solid yellow. Is that a sport or reverting?

I have the same problem and in fact have lost several this year. I totally redid my front yard 2 years ago with beautiful peat moss soil mixed with my soil and the garden looked great. This year I have TONS of weeds,the kind you have to shovel up, and hosta loss and shrinkage. I have to dig up the w...

Fair-ring is where a hosta grows only on the outside edge and not in the center, youd know it when you seen it. I know some of them did pop upwards either in the winter or early spring and need to be re-planted but I dont get why others have fairy ringed.My Sagae the second year grew in 3 different ...

this year they look horrible most of them either look like fairy ring or something else. In every garden almost every hosta looks this way.3 different types of soil in the gardens and the same effect in all 3 types.
