I have it. Got it one year about a decade ago and got 'Blue Shadows' about a year later. Couldn't tell them apart for years. Then the last couple of years TA did a decline. I dug it and divided it and put it in my veggie garden for awhile. Put one of the divisions in a new location last autumn and will watch it. Not sure I"ll keep the others.

Thanks-crossing fingers it shows up soon. It is in an area which gets a bit of morning sun and a little late afternoon sun.

I forgot about that one. I had it for 5 years it was slow and late to rise I thought it might need more shade. I moved it to more shade and it died.

I hope your return it is a pretty little thing.

Moles are carnivorous and do not eat hostas. Their tunnels, however, facilitate the predations of voles.

Oh-I sprayed for moles & chipmonks with castor oil, would that deter voles too?

I went to dig up mine in the area I planted it to see if there was something wrong with it and there as nothing there. I guess something ate it or it just died. :bawl: Sooner or later I'll get another one.

Sorry to hear that - it is a beautiful hosta. I got 3 from Chris a couple of years ago for my front lawn garden.

I guess I shouldn't have moved it, apparently its quite sensitive. I liked it too-I will get another when I see how my gardens fill out this year and see where it will fit in color wise and be happy :lol:
