Hi....
I´ve grown some seedling this year- the first year I ever grow some. And it is just for fun- but i like to show you some of my Baby´s- these one are from Bitsy Gold:
I am so happy, that these 3 Babys survived. What do you think, when will they become as big as there parents? How many years does that take?

Re: My first baby´s
Hi Mel,
They are looking cute
It will likely take a couple summers before they are really getting bigger, but since hostas don't come true from seed they won't ever look exactly like the parents. I'm sure you will see a family resemblance though
Personally I haven't made any crosses here this year, though now that it is raining regularly I am really thinking about a few, and seeing these seedlings makes me think about it some more.
Thanks for sharing!
