New 2007. Love this enthusiastic mini but it took me awhile to find a garden location where it is completely happy.

Hosta (Hosta clausa)

Have
I believe I acquired this sometime in the 1980s, likely when it outgrew a neighbour's yard. At any rate I see it up and down the street. It is VERY rhizomatous. This one needs to be grown in a place where other things don't like to grow or it can take over. Lovely dark purple buds which never open late in the season.

Hosta (Hosta plantaginea 'Venus')

Have
New before 2008. Was divided a few years ago and part of it moved to a new location where it has grown better than the original one. It's now the only division I have. It doesn't always flower for me. Needs warmth but also needs rain. However, in a wet year, it's likely to sustain considerable slug damage before blooming.
