Blooming Hosta

I really haven’t had much experience with Hostas, initially I thought they died over the winter because nothing showed in the ground until mid June. But, slowly they have grown, ever so slowly, and now blooms are beginning to appear. The plant in the photo is the Plantain Lily “Minuteman”. The jury is still out on wheather or not Hostas are going to survive in my perinneal garden. We shall see what they do next year.

Love all the garden (and art) posts, and your blog in general. Maybe its the hint of autumn ‘in the sky’ that’s making me feel especially homesick, nostalgic, and hopeful. I’m filing away your garden friends and ideas for future use…

Dorthea;
Thanks. I’ve found I love gardening more each year, although I still consider myself a rank beginner. I’m pulling for you to return!
