So pretty after a rain… esp. love the textures in that first shot. Card and frame-worthy!
Thanks, Eliza. Great minds run in the same channel. I had some 4 x 6s made of that shot, and I’ve already sent it as a card.
Beautiful hosta Laurie, I especially love the first image too 🤗💖 xxx
Thanks, Xenia!
Lovely!
Many thanks!
Is the next to the last one ” Mouse Ears”? I love your photos!
Yes, it is mouse ears. Thanks, Gayle.
Such good pictures, thank you.
Thanks, Susan.
Love the first photo and your hostas look wonderful!🙂 Half of mine have disappeared thanks to the deer.
Thanks so much!
I have hosta envy.
I am trying them again – in pots though – on our terrace. I am like a woman possessed with them – checking for slug/snail damage and making sure they are shaded from too much sun.
Maybe one day they will grow up to be like yours.🌱
You would love my front garden. It is hosta central. With dry shade, I don’t have much choice. But in the category of “we always want what we don’t have.,” I long for a cottage garden bursting with colorful blooms. 😉 Anyway, good luck with your hostas.
I remember them well. No slugs?
Not yet. But they will come.
You’re a hosta convert!
I am! Not much choice when you live in the woods.
Beautiful! Big, bold leaves.
Many thanks!
I love the ones with multiple greens on the leaves.
Thanks!
D > J and I love hostas! Unfortunately, so do the slugs. We have a hedgehog who volunteers help in the garden, but I think we’d need an army of hedgehogs to keep pace with the slugs. Your hostas look perfect – Grrr!
How sweet it must be to have hedgehogs in the garden. Alas, as summer progress the slugs and snails will come marching in and do their worst. I’ll post pictures of how the hostas look by summer’s end.
Gorgeous hostas! I especially like the third one … do you know what kind it is?
Thanks! The third one is called mouse ears.
Mouse Ears! Great name, now it’s on my list to add to the garden next spring! Thanks.

One of my favorites!
Great shots, particularly with the raindrops.
Prince Charles would approve. https://www.crocus.co.uk/bomcard/_/the-highgrove/the-highgrove-hosta-collection/classid.2000019455/

Great foliage colors and textures.
Many thanks! Best of all, no slug and snail damage yet.
