These are my most troublesome ones.
'Calypso'
'Wide Brim'
'Sea Sapphire'
tortifrons
'Jade Cascade'
I love 'Calypso' and will try a new one this year. I have given up on
'Wide Brim". 'Wide Brim' is so puckered that when the leaves open up,
the edges tear. Is this a nutritional problem or just a bad hosta? I
will move tortifrons to a sunny location -- I've learned my lesson
here. Next year is year 3 for Jade Cascade. It is still a small hosta
-- waiting for specatacular growth. On another note, I'm surprised to
hear that 'Kabitan' is a problem. I have 'Kabitan' growing very well;
one plant purchased 4 years ago is now 22 plants forming a long border.
North side of house for shade, but no trees -- wish I could plant all of
my hostas here.
