Re: new cover
Is this the best time to dig and separate hostas?
I promised to share a start of Sum and Substance. She gave me my first
start and hers has died out.

I finally finished digging out the Hosta bed I planted 12 yrs ago that
needed rejuvenating. I replanted a few divisions but potted most for sale.
So I knew I needed some new varieties. Hostas actually tend to multiply
more if you keep dividing them.
HThe items I'm hoping will be good multipliers are
Hosta Hanky Panky
Hosta Cherry Berry
Hosta Abiqua Moonbeam
Hosta Liberty
Siberian Iris Silver Edge
Siberian Iris Butter & Sugar
Siberian Iris Eric the Red
Digitalis obscura
Hemerocallis Chorus Line
Salvia Blue Flame
Antirrhinum Dulcinea's Heart
Euphorbia Tasmanian Tiger
These next ones I ordered because I like them.
Pelargonium endlicherianum
Mirabilis multiflorus
Leptinella Platt's Black
Euphorbia x martinii Tiny Tim

If they send me one it will be long after the rush; if they have some
leftover.
As Gene will attest, catalogs are expensive and if people don't place
orders, they simply have to get deleted from the list. I do place
orders, but they are for the display gardens and so the catalog would go
to the CES office. Ricky gives me some of them, but I can't get there
very often.
I used to order a lot for myself from all sorts of places, but in recent
years I just haven't had any money to do so, so I am falling off lists.
However, I can always find the plants online and download order forms
from websites .
I did place orders this year for me w Homestead, Bluestone, and HCG. I
need to start growing new material to be able to divide plants in the
future for my annual plant sale. I tend to look at plants now, not just
for their aesthetic value, but for their tendency to multiply. If I can
divide a plant in a couple of years and sell off 3/4 of it, the plant
pays for itself.
It might be fun to air our lists. What are you ordering this year?
