BTW, I've mentioned that I have many of my minis in troughs. The 'Baby Bunting' family, I've successfully overwintered for a number of years by covering with my unscreened compost in my veggie garden each autumn. Most of the others live in 5" pots that I bury in the veggie garden each autumn and then sink into the troughs in spring. That way I avoid having to disturb their roots twice each year. Some are outgrowing those pots, but I"ll deal with that later.
Here are more:
'Green Eyes' - a nice little plant that is doing well in its pot. This, BTW, is a good example of why you share plants with friends. I shared a division with a friend. Then I put mine in a container I acquired at a garage sale. Must have been something in or about that container because nothing I planted in it did well. My 'Green Eyes' did not survive. I was able to get a small division back from the friend I gave it to.
'Hidden Cove' has been a slow grower for me. I moved it to this location two years ago and it does better, but maybe it would like even more light.
'Hope' - one of the 'Baby Bunting' family and it does well. BTW, I didn't post 'Cameo' from this family but it also grows well for me. 'Cherish' does not.
'Kifukurin Ko Mame' - one of my very early hostas. It might be difficult to get commercially these days. It's an absolutely delightful mini which grows fast, is easy to divide and makes a wonderful border which I have in four places in my yard.
'Kinbotan' - another fast growing mini. Similar to the one above except the leaves are not as wavy. This is a GREAT ground-cover hosta.
