Re: BRUNNERA macrophylla 'Variegata' was: hosta from seed

Just read Bill Lee's heartening info on the B.  That's all I needed to hear! 
What do think Marge? Oh, there are several other beautiful variegated forms 
of Brunnera that I know of: B. macrophylla 'Hadspen Cream' and B. macrophylla 
'Langtrees'  The Hadspen is said to have a narrower margin than Variegata and 
one source reads,  "Grows easily in shade and humus rich soil."                 
                        The Langtrees is "emargined with large silvery spots" 
but another source describes it as having "a double row of pure silver 
markings around the outside of the leaf."                                       
                                        I didn't know about this one before 
-- there is a pure white flowering form called B. macrophylla 'Betty 
Bowring.'                                                       More food for 
thought. Like we needed more food for thought -                     Paul has 
started something now, hasn't he?                                               
                                                                        Holly
