Hosta ID and/or Web Page
 

Is there a decent hosta identification web page that I can use to id a hosta
my sister gave me?

If any one wants to have a go at it, pics are at the link below. I included
a pic with this hosta next to a Hosta fortunei 'Gold Standard' possibly as a
reference(unknown hosta is on right next to Yew.)

And of course just as I post this my web site goes down. Sigh.

Try again later if you may, or if the site stays down for too long, I'll
report.

Have to say that I never care about IDing the hostas - like the surprise of the
variations. Guess I am one of those 'messy gardeners'.

Thx.

Actual leaf measurements and a picture of it in bloom would be helpful.

I can measure the leaf, though can't say whether it is at full size yet. As
for blooms, no where near blooming yet.

When I can spare a few minutes, I continue to browse through the Hosta
Library to find a match, but there are so many hostas, might be at it till
the first frost! grin

Well, good luck with this task. I tagged the hostas I planted this spring
and ya know what? I can't really see any difference in them anyway. Maybe
when they flower....

I have many hostas of 4 different kinds. They are very different from eac=
h
other. The leaves are different, of different sizes and colors. The flowe=
rs are
different as well. Some even have white flowers some are grouped differen=
tly on
their stems. Some have quite big flowers. I used to have only one kind. B=
ut now
it is a lot more interesting. I am thinking to get one or two more kind o=

hostas and replace the least interesting ones.

I am up to 10 different hosta, and as most were purchased with the plant
info attached, they are being tracked.

My sister regularly gives me cuttings from her impressive garden, and this
garden she inherited when she bought the house. As such, she knows the type
of plant, but not variety.

Finding the variety makes for a challenge. I guess trying to determine this
info before the plant is fully grown and blooming isn't the right idea, will
have to wait until the flowers arrive.
