At the 1989 AHS Convention, there was a panel discussion on the naming of
hostas.
How do you name your hostas? Do you try to capture the morphology of the plant
or do you use other criteria?
What are some names that you think are great ones and what are some that you
think are not so good?

My list of great ones:

Edward The Second( Edward II)
Princess Diana
Edge of Night
Monument Circle
Sunset Boulevard
Arctic Circle
Columbus Circle
Clyde Crockett
Intrigue
Virginia Woolf
Count Dracula


My list of unfavorites:

Big Mama
Big Daddy
Doctor Bill-Bob
Broadway Frances
Nooner
Big John
Clyde Crockett
