Back at the Fairs and more!

 The Dutch Hosta Society volunteers were active this weekend! Two fairs on the same day! Two very different locations in The Netherlands! What a great day to promote The Dutch Hosta Society and Hostas! It's great to see so many people interested in gardening and Hostas!

 One team was enjoying the sunshine in Oostvoorne

 at the Bos and Burcht Fair! They had great show plants!

Slugs and Garlic extract were on topic!

 Team two was busy in "Strong in the Shade", Hilversum!

A fair especially for plants that do well in the shade!

 We also did well in the shade! 

Slugs and Garlic extract were also on topic here! 

 Great locations, atmosphere and the public made for a great day for both teams!

Maybe we'll see you at the next Fair!

 How are your Hostas growing?

Here are a few "earlier" and "now" photo's form a garden

from one of our members of The Dutch Hosta Society!

3 months later and they're  looking great! 

 Notice the watering system?

 No slugs here!

 The marking/name tags work well!

Thanks for sharing a fine Hosta mix! 

The "Nederlandse Hosta Vereniging" is on Facebook!

Maybe you'd like to share your Hostas there?

See you at the next Dutch Hosta Society event!

At the Fair!

 The Dutch Hosta Society volunteers enjoyed an active weekend at Krijn Spaan nursery! We were located by the entrance/exit! A great location to "meet and greet" and to chat with the "I'll pick one up on the way out" visitors!

Hosta displays are always fun to set up!

Do you know which Hosta this is?

 The sunny weather Saturday brought out a lot of visitors! The 10 - 17;00 day was a constant buzz of gardeners, questions, comments and laughter!

 Sundays rain and wind didn't stop the real garden enthusiasts either! Those that came by bike were really out to look for something new for their garden! That's dedication! And the Dutch cycling way! We also enjoyed seeing all the different umbrellas that passed us by, twice!

 Yes, slugs and the latest, Garlic Extract are always on topic!

A great weekend! We're here again, end of August! 

But first....

Time to dry off and get ready for the next Hosta Activities! There are 2 Garden Fairs happening on May 30th! The Bos and Burcht Fair  and "Stoer in de Schaduw" . See you there!
