Yes, that red edge and flower on a hosta would be fantastic. I also like the ripple.

I love the newest calla lilies that have color on the bloom tips. We picked up a pink one like your red. Love it!! Thanks for sharing.

Hey, you calla folks. How strange is this? One double flower (outer part, anyway) and some of the leaves have the flower color but no sex parts.

Hey Tigger, Mother Nature will give you surprises like this and they sometimes can't be explained. She just keeping you on her toes.
We have seen this also from doubles inside to outside, leaves turning colors also, is't like they got the wrong message or damaged
prior to forming. Lucky you!! :eek:
