Spring Trade

I know that there has been some interest in a Spring Trade. I have hosted in the past and would be willing to do so again unless judyg163, or someone else would rather host. Please let me know .........

Re: Summer Trades Received

I'd like to thank hostamanphil for the great package. He reminded me that we were spaw partners a few summers ago. It was nice to receive after getting back from a weekend of helping clean my grandparent home. They just moved to a assisted care facility. I was able to nab some plant starts, (even so...

Lakeside Zinger Sport

Hey all. I was out looking for my plant to send for the summer trade, and look what I found. It is a complete eye in the middle of LS Zinger. What do you think? I think it looks pretty cool. Should I seperate it this summer or wait and see if it comes back next spring? http://i301.photobucket.com/al...

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 t...

When to water?!?

All- This is the earlies that I have ever had hostas emerging. We usually have snow until the end of April. It has been really dry here and I am wondering if I should start watering, or should I wait. I am worried if I water, they will really come up and be hit by a normal frost. On the other hand I...

Re: My Favorite seedling (at least this year)

Pauhaus, Eastwood-

This plant is 4 years old and a great grower. I'd say it's a medium to medium-large.

No slug damage either, but the four legged varmits tend to do damage after they have eaten all the other hosta.
