Invinsible is my slug magnet and everything magnet. It always looks ratty by July even if I were to build a wall around it.
Had to show it when it looks good.

It is pretty now tho. Do the slugs get it if you use slug bait?
I like the blue one in the right hand corner too!! What's that?

The one in the right lower corner is actually my favorite hosta and not blue at all - Foxfire Irish Moon. Frosty lime green might better describe it.
If there is one hosta that I will breed this season above all others it is that one. If you grew it you would agree.
If the Invinsible gets in its way, its history.
