That is what I am looking for. Numbers mean nothing. A hosta that thrives
not necessarily growing fast. A "look at me" hosta with stature,
form, texture, coloring, and the ability to look well all season. I have a
few, I want them all. What are those hostas? What grows well for me might
not necessarily grow well for you. Have we got the same plants?
Yes! I throw out hostas by the hundreds. I am trying a few OS plants that I
have already bought that have not lived up to their reputations. A few I
bought last year.. one in particular is noticeably better - Tokudama
Aureonebulosa. So I didn't have the right plant after two previous tries.
Yes I am willing to buy the same hosta several times until I get the plant I
want. I don't care if it is a Walmart plant. I just don't need or want
mediocre plants. Yes, I am willing to give a hosta four years before I throw it
out. No I do not give away these hostas because I consider them mediocre. My
superior hostas are not necessarily the ones I paid the most money for. So
buyer beware. Take Care.. Chris from Braintree
