Yours is gorgeous Barbara! :cool: Mine is not looking too pretty this year due to frost nip or rabbit nip or both. :roll:

Gorgeous!

I just got this one from Chris a couple of weeks ago - it is awesome looking even as a new plant, but I can't WAIT for it to grow up and liik like THAT one!

Good Growing!

Amazing pics, Barb. I love the one with the brunnera blooming in the foreground...those tiny little blue flowers just do something marvelous for an allready outstanding hosta.
I just said to my son-in-law the other day, if I had to leave and could only take one hosta with me right now, it would have to be Liberty. It's been a fast grower for me, and you just can't take your eyes off it!

It's one of a very small percentage of my hostas that aren't ugly from the freeze and/or cutworms. One day it'll grow up and look like Barb's!! :P

Nice Grouping Linda!!
