Hosta College demo flowering Hostas

Post by thehostagourmet »

I will be teaching Hosta Hybridizing 101 again this year at Hosta College (two sections this year), and will be in need of one or more Hostas in flower. Does anyone have a heated greenhouse that could force a few early flowering varieties, or know of anyone who could? Otherwise it's Easter Lilies again this year.

George, are you friendly with any of the vendors? Bill Ebert (Silvers-Ebert Nursery) usually brings big plants and I bet he would bring up something like thunderbolt or great expectations if you asked him to... and of course he gets the plug at your talk.
Jack Barta has big plants, Oscar from Hilltop too.
