What ?

Hi Everyone,

After what seems like ages, my computer is up and running again. I am not very knowledgeable about computers and had to return it so many times to the "experts" for alterations, in hindsight, I should just have bought a new one. I am now up and running and have 400 GB to hold all my hybrid pics.
I have never been so busy with all things hosta than I have in the past few months.
I have many interesting hybrid pictures to share and I will try to find time to post more often. I am just catching up with all the mail and hope to enter in some discussions.
If anyone had sent me any personal E mails in the last few months, could you please resend ?
Here is a hybrid seedling pic to start things off. Early season pic, current pic, enjoy,
Jim from the Hills.

Wow!!

That is beautiful! I love love love rippled leaves, and the coloring on that is just lovely! Does it have a bit of a shine to the leave as well? congrats on a really nice looking plant!

Jim it's beautiful! When you say 'hybrid' do you mean you crossed two hosta cultivars or two species??

thats really nice leafy.

good to hear from you. we'd thought that you might had a terrible hosta accident. accidentally grown a radioactive seedling or something.

Leafy, I'm so glad you're not trapped in the dungeon, forced to subsist on hosta leaf salad.
Good to have you back, and that seedling is

eye-popping.

Jim, the best thing about being on here AND on the Hostapix list is that I get to see some of your pics twice. I really like this one.
