'Dee's Golden Jewel' - or at least that's what I'm calling it. It's actually the solid yellow that I've divided out of my 'Jewel of the Nile' which is a sport of DGJ,

'Deja Blu' - is a mature plant (new in 2007) that is not easy to divide as it's got a very solid crown. With walkways on both sides of it, it's outgrowing this location; so I need to lift and divide it this autumn.

'Dorset Blueblood' - is the solid blue sport that I divided from 'Dorset Clown' this season.

'Eleanor Lachman' - was new in 2012 and is doing well. I remember my late friend Eleanor when I look at it.

'Electrocution' was new in 2014 and I really like this one. You can certainly see how it got its name.

'Emerald Ruff Cut' was new in 2009 and I love its ruffled leaves. I have two seedlings from it, one yellow and one green which both have nice ruffled leaves.

'Fruit Punch' was a 2015 impulse buy. In spring, the leaves have a faint edge of pink and it's just about to bloom. It's has very colourful blooms on red scapes.

'Ghost Spirit' was new in 2008 and I love the varied mistiness of its leaves.

'Guardian Angel' was a division, in 2017, from a GA I bought for the hosta garden at my church. I have the rest of the plant, temporarily I hope, in my back garden as the church lost its shade tree and we dismantled the hosta garden at which time I beat the other gardeners and brought the plant home and took a division from it.

'Ice Age Trail' was new in 2006 but in 2017 you could barely find any streaked portion of it. I finally dug it and divided out lots of 'Big Daddy' and a small streaked portion. It's still being grown in a large pot, but I hope to get it in a garden location this autumn.
