That is indeed a pretty hosta at this time of year, but not THIS year. It's an old picture. It's under my Linden tree and this year Linden trees are giving off sticky stuff that is coating everything underneath them making them look sooty and sticky and attracting all sorts of wasps. But that one is called 'Marilyn Monroe' because of the ruffled leaves which are white on the underside. A bit of wind and they look like that picture of MM with her skirts blowing.

BTW, I did aquafit this morning and walked about 5 km yesterday.

Also got all my trip pictures up on SmugMug. If you prefer to look at pictures on a site like that rather than Facebook, you'll find them at: https://violaann.smugmug.com/T...
