Here's the hostas I have on order for this year,

From Naylor Creek
Erotica
Thrills and Frills
The Sweetest Thing
Exotic Treasure
Happy Dayz
Playmate
Great Expectations (to replace one that has been a dud for several years)

From NGP
Andrew (another replacement)
Final Summation
Glad Rags
Gunsmoke
Krugerand
Montana Macrophylla
Northern Exposure
Fame Game

My 'Spilt Milk' was very small last year, so I divided it and potted them up. If they don't make it I'll probably add that one to my list. I hate to lose that one, since it had some really nice streaking.

Again, this year my plan is to move all the mediums and small off of the hillside and replace with large ones that will fill in so mulching won't be needed (I hope). It's a pretty steep hill, so it's getting to be a bit too much to tend to.

Rose, those are some nice hostas, love the hill side. Do you really have to dig them up? Maybe you could just plant more in between, think of how long it will take them to get big as these. Great choices on the spring orders. Love your garden!
