Have you ever saved any of these seedlings? Maybe crossing them with each
other will get you some stable serration a few generations down the line.
Also thanks to Clyde for sending me the pic of Patsy Stygal's seedling. I'd
think it should have a lot of potential for further developing.
I'm still visualizing a nice dark green hosta with 1/4" white teeth all
around the leaves. I'm sure someone is probably well on their way to it.
