Here are some hosta plantings. I will not identify the individual plants but if you have any questions I will be glad to ID them....

Would love to see things identified if you can find the time to do it. Some of them I know, others I don't.

Paul2032,
I think it is great just to post pics, even though with names is better most times. This will give some of us a chance to try and Id them on our own, it might help us be more observant. I had actually thought it might be of some interest for someone to post a mystery plant every week. They would post a hosta known to them and everyone could try and name it, at the end of the week the name would be revealed. Maybe as the week went by throw out a hint: like height one day, maybe bloom color the next, etc. until someone gets it or the week comes to an end. Any interest any one?

ViolaAnn.
Would you be willing to share the names of plants in Paul's post that you think you know, and most important, share with us what attributes you see in the photos that lead you to believe it is a certain plant? If you don't have the time for all of them, how about just one or two at a time?
For instance in Paul's second photo, the main two hostas (center one and lower right) shown look similar in color and pattern to a couple in my garden, but what is it that would distinguish them form other hostas that look close?

Paul,

I enjoyed viewing your gardens. There is no need to ID.

I will also post the the same way.

Thank you.

I would ID them but I need to spend my time in the garden and not at the computer even though I enjoy reviewing my folders and posting pictures.

Paul,

Beautiful photos! I really like that variegated grass that you have for a companion plant. Your gardens must be the envy of the neighborhood!

Like Paul, I don't have time to go back and try to name all his hostas, and it would get very confusing anyway. I hope that perhaps, when the garden isn't as time consuming, Paul will come back and ID many of them for you.

In regard to his second photo, I don't have those varieties and I"m not sure. I DO have 'Rainforest Sunrise which shows at the left. Am wondering whether the one at the top right (showing only partially) might be 'Sweet Innocence'.

The reason I like to have plants ID'd is that hostas are chameleons and can look different in one garden than they do in another depending on the zone, the amount of light, and the season. Also, unless there is something in a photo to show scale, a cropped photo of a very small hosta can look nearly identical to a very large hosta. To make an accurate ID you need to be able to see the whole plant too as the shape of the mound can vary widely from one plant to the next.

IDing...is that a word? That will be a good winter project when I need to stay in the house. The leaves peeking out of the right upper corner are Lakeside April Snow. The golden chartreuse hosta is Hottsy Tottsy. The bottom hosta is Silver star and Viola Ann is correct about Rainforest Sunrise. Good eye.......

Thanks,
By no means was I expecting you to name all those hostas, but I do appreciate the information you gave.
I know even the few I have I find it hard to ID them when they are divided and moved to another location, I find it hard to believe just moving a feet feet can cause such a difference in appearance.

Good tips for us wanting to get an ID on a plant.

Thanks Paul,
I think we cross posted.

Seedfork....I would be happy to ID the Hosta in any of the pictures if any one is interested. I probably ought to number them.....

Paul2032,
Numbering them would work great, maybe only one or two at a time.

what is the light green one with the yellow edge that looks wavy or rippled on the edges?

Which picture Frilly....I'll bet you mean Curly Fries...

it is in the fourth and fifth pictures in the first post.

That's Wheee! I believe.

Good eye Rose. It is Wheee! My Sister-in-Law bought 2 at Hosta House yesterday......
