hosta links / vinca

Joanie, thanks for the links; one was really a help to me because I have a Frances Williams I was worried about -- the link informs me it's too little water, too much sun which sounds right and is a big relief after this virus thread!

I'm really writing to say I'm so so sorry about your beautiful hosta bed. What a tragedy! If Vinca minor is any help in the interim I will send you some.

I'm beginning to wonder what I can use as a ground cover for  shade that has
beautiful foliage  and some height. Any ideas? I had  about 90 Hosta just in
the one infected bed, which now have many more that are  showing that
stripey/puckery/mottled coloration. A sad, sad day.
