Japanese Maple is thriving alongside the Hostas
I prefer not to remove it now, let’s see how it grows

Perhaps due to amount of snowfall we had last winter, but we find that our garden is doing really well this year. we had never seen so many and so big blooms on hostas ever since we planted them.

EDIT: corrected some spelling mistakes

Hosta, in the Garden of Paradise.

Good Morning!

Bumblebees are totally metal, in the world of pollinators

After the early-morning alerts from the Ring in the backyard, I went out to inspect what the doe had done. On the left side of the yard she'd been nibbling at things like my 3 bunches of sedum, but much was still there.

Then I started to see the hosta. Some were eaten, some remained. I walked over to the back of the right side of the yard, and she was still there, just eating away! Clearly someone has been feeding her. I had to get quite forceful to get her to leave.

We've been here 8 years, and this is the first time this has happened.

Stopped in to the permanent farmer's market in #Asheville this afternoon, then trundled across the street to the nursery there. Didn't buy anything, but enjoyed the green.

It's #hosta season! With a new #huecheca/coral bells.

And hidden in the #vinca, this little #hydrangea cutting I propagated last year surprised me by coming back; winter took it at about the same size. #garden

Did you know you can eat Hosta? Get them just like this, very early before the leaves unfurl.

Wash them very well and pat dry.

A few minutes on medium high, some butter or oil, and a good bit of garlic.

Sonnenschein und neue Blätter.
Die #Hosta 'June' schiebt neue, frischgrüne Blätter. Noch ohne Schneckenfraß; dass dürfte sich die nächsten Tage ändern . Es soll ja Regen geben.

Hosta Buds and Blooms by Debra Martz
They spring forth so brilliantly green in April and bud in May but it is all downhill after the heat of the Oklahoma summer knocks on the door! They never make it to be large plants filled with many stems of flowers. But I enjoy watching them grow under the canopy of my Cypress, cut them to the ground when they wilt in late June, and wait for their return next Spring.
