When I looked at Neat Splash, I wish I lived in the US. It sure is a neat Hosta.

I don't have a Cold Heart. [Hadn't heard of it before actually.] But seeing your pic makes me pretty sure that I need one. Details - I need details, Beth!! Where'd you get yours?? How long have you had it?? How big does it get?? Who's the hybridizer?? All that good stuff!!

I think yours is the best looking Gilt by Association I've ever seen. 8-) :cool: 8-) Usually when I see a pic of this one I can't see what all the fuss is about... :oops:

And YES!! We need all of the pics you've got!! :P Please!!

I love the upright form on Tenryu!  Lakeside Surf Rider is in the background,  It took a hit in the 3 nights of cold we had April 15, 16, & 17.

Cold Heart...that's a really great pic of it. I don't have it.
(Reldon, it's one of Altarra's, I do believe.)
I haven't gotten it yet, because I have a seedling similar in color, but still, that pointed twisty tip...that's really :cool: .
More nice pics, Beth!
