My question is "What should I/could I do with them. Congratulations. This is my second year gardening and I've been looking forward for ages to seeing the new shoots emerge from the Hostas I planted last year. I've even got a nice pot ready to take a divison from one as soon as there's sign of multiple shoots. Sadly nothing yet. I think I'd better have a root around where they're planted to make sure there's something down there. My Hostas aren't showing yet (under a N. wall in E. Anglia). If you really have to root around, be careful not to damage the new shoots. Some call it "Finger blight" (caused by nowt more than impatient curiosity). Gardening should wean you away from the 'Now, now, now' mentality. Hope you enjoy them when they arrive - as I am sure they will.
