 Early on this rainy Saturday morning here in The Netherlands! 
 This one seems to grow while you´re looking!
And this one will get there!
 And some Hostas grow inbetween!
 H. Sparticus is doing well!
See, some things do look great in the rain!
Looking forward to seeing you June 23rd!

 "There are now a total of  4988  registered Hostas"
I wonder which one this is? Better go to a Hosta grower!
H. T. Rex grows here! I'll keep you posted!

Summer weekends are filling up with Hosta activities!

So let's get prepared and get going on a Hosta wish list!

H. Empress Wu can go there! The hole is ready! Definately will be planting H. Teaspoon near by! Then H. Robert Frost placed near the road just because it's one of my favourite poems! H. Quilting Bee and H. Teatime somewhere inbetween as Hobbies go! Then there might be room for Hosta .......... Hosta Society members, you know how the rest of the story goes!

Mid April and these Hostas without a name, yet, are doing quite well even with our cooler than normal temperatures for this time of year! They get their daily dose of used coffee grounds as I empty the coffee filter on the way to the compost bin. I think I'll be making a batch of Garlic Extract soon! You can read more about Garlic Extract on an earlier Blog post. This and coffee grounds! Maybe there will be less slug activity this summer?!

The Hosta Garden in Hoensbroek was on German T.V. !
All Hostas were looking great!
Gartentraume, a 1/2 hour show, was filled with gardens!

Lots of inspiration for the gardener!

A great garden to visit and relax in!
