Hosta of the Day "Thunderbolt" - Post Your Pics

Post by Phil_and_Gayle »

Surely LOTS of folks have one of these . . . .
Even if you don't have a 'Thunderbolt' you could post a photo of a 'Dream Weaver' or 'Dream Queen' and I'll never know the difference ;>) [Gayle]

I love my 'Dream Queen' . I lost my 'Dream Weaver'. My Thunderbolt is immature and hanging on. I see a big difference between Phil and Gayle's beautiful 'Thunderbolt and my "Dream Queen'.
I hope my "Thunderbolt ' equals theirs in time.
