Hi, Clyde. Back when we were on the AHS Robin, you had suggested that
those of us - and there were alot of us that season - with frost and hail
damage mow hostas where there were many plants needing to be cut back. I
took your advice, and within a month, the plants had sent up new pips. I
could not tell them apart from those that had been undamaged and therefore
had not been mowed.
