Here's a few that still look okay. Most of mine are looking pretty tired. I saw earlier that my Embroidery had Southern Blight, and looked like a goner. After seeing the discussion here I decided to look again. There's three new leaves coming up on it! Hopefully it will survive.

RJ that does hold a nice blue color.
Rose is the pic of Ghost Spirit recent, the reason I did not get it was they said it turns green and I did not want another one like War Paint that turned all green quickly. Will have to put back on my want list if it stays like yours. And how long was the Etched Glass planted that it is just showing up ? Also the colors seem reversed with the light color on the outside of leaf.

That picture of Ghost Spirit was just taken the other day. I should have looked up Etched Glass before posting it as that. I'm still trying to figure out what that one is! It's in the area that I planted Etched Glass in last year Shrug! I think it's safe to say that I've lost Etched Glass.

Too bad about the Etched Glass, it is a pretty one. And good to hear about the Ghost Spirit.

It does look like a nice one.
Does anyone have Hosta 'Collector's Banner' looks interesting.

Rick Goodenough has some real beauties! Unfortunately they're way out of my price range. I've loved Stags Leap since I first saw the picture. I'm assuming it's been tc'd by now and is more affordable. Not even going to look!

The more I look at this one, I'm convinced that it is Etched Glass. I planted 3 tiny liners together last year. I'll try to remember to watch the colors in the spring. The centers are white now. It looks too much like Lakeside Paisley Print. I think Paisley Print starts out white and stays white.

Looks like it could be, hopefully you get the nice gold color as it matures. I think they are supposed to get white flowers but does not look like you will get any this season. It is one I want to get for the front garden to break up the blues and greens. I have tried a few all golds but I think that garden just gets to much sun for them as none have done well. Or maybe they are just not strong enough to compete with the roots from the trees over there. Wish I had a source of compost other then what I can make myself which never goes far enough as that soil could use a boost. I might try digging some chopped up leaves into the soil between the Hosta this Fall.

Check out Lakeside Paisley Print. It's a nice medium hosta that's been a vigorous plant in my gardens. If you're looking for the yellow color, it's not what you want. But it's really a nice plant.

That along with Cathedral Windows are others I want for the front, but I want to finish the back garden first and get it how I want it. Still another 3 or 4 I want for back there if I can find them next season.

Not sure why my post showed up twice! It must be a sign that you need Paisley Print!
