Title: Miniature Hostas
Post by: mark smyth on June 24, 2007, 02:32:14 PM

here are a few of my miniature Hostas. I always remove the flowers because that isnt what I'm interested in.

A good tip I was given yesterday was if there is white on the leaf dont give it full sun. Give it either no sun or heavy dappled shade

'Blue Mouse Ears'
'Cat's Eye'
'Cookie Crumbs'
'Green with Envy'
'Hope'
'Lakeside Elphin Fire'
'Pandora's Box'

Those minis look great, Mark.
I haven't seen them around here yet, but I haven't been looking as even the normal sized ones don't last long in our garden.
cheers

Are they on the allowed list? A local supplier can get a phyto for them
