A Hosta Walkabout
I knew I had quite a few Hosta in the garden but not this many! I walked around the other day and snapped these. I have others, but they are duplicates/divisions. Click an individual thumbnail to enlarge. (Fingers crossed that this works!)

Re: A Hosta Walkabout
All your Hostas are beautiful! So nice and full.
I noticed one Hosta picture contained some Ferns in there too. After seeing that picture, you have inspired me to get more Ferns.
I also love the look of Sweet Woodruff mixed in with the Hostas. My Hosta gardens have Sweet Woodruff too.

Re: A Hosta Walkabout
Well I certainly don't have you beat. Wish I had room for more. I always thought I had a large space. Compared to most of the city I do, but it's starting to feel small now that I don't have space for everything I'd like to put in it. A good friend (that I met here!!!) reminds me to be thankful for what I have....so true, but a girl can dream.

SOOO NICE!
I love Hostas, don't know anyone who doesn't come to think of it. The few varieties you have with deep bold white in them are stunning, definitely my favourites.

Re: A Hosta Walkabout
Thanks for the nice comments. Some of these came with the house, some I brought with me from our other house, and some I've added in the last couple of years. I don't have room for any more though! The ones with the most white on them are planted in the deepest shade and provide a little 'light' in an otherwise dark and gloomy place.
