Default What a recovery!

Hi again,

Some of you may remember a post that I made here back on April 10th. It
was concerning a freeze that we had here in zone 5 (extreme SE Iowa)
where it dipped down into the twenties and thus froze about everything
that was already up. The Hostas were the big problem, they just looked
like wilted lettuce and/or mush. I ask what I should do with them and
got varying answers so I finally cut them down almost to the ground.

Well, they made a great recovery and you can see some pictures at
http://www.crsales.com/hosta.htm if you are interested.

Don't ask how the Tree Peonies came out. :-(
