'Curly Fries' - still in a pot - 3rd season in my garden. I'm trying to decide where to put it permanently. It will be the 2016 Hosta of the Year!

'Cutting Edge' - still not fully unfurled, but still striking. This is a hosta with attitude.

'Dorset Clown' - a small streaker just starting its 3rd season with me

'Frisian Pride' was given a location in the garden this year. Just starting its 3rd season with me.

'Great Expectations' is another of which I like the look before it unfurls. This is one of my oldest plants and it's still not very large.

'Harpoon' - another showing the red base of the plant.

'Katsuragawa Beni' - I go back and forth on this one. Was going to get rid of it, but still rather like it; so I kept a division, but for now, it's in a pot.

'Kifukurin Ko Mame' - an older mini hosta. This is, without doubt, the best tiny edger I have. Fast growing, easy to divide. I have borders in 4 locations. I think it's hard to find now unless you know someone who has it. Too bad. Look carefully to find it amongst the crocus foliage.
