Crumb Cake, 5x14
Curly Fries, 11x14
Dinner Mint, 7x15
Fall Dazzler, 8x17
Hideout, 6x14
Holy Mouse Ears, 6x16"

Some of these I have no experience with, but 'Curly Fries', though a delightful hosta, is not mini IMO (even if it may be on the list) and 'Holy Mouse Ears' is likely to be a very slow grower and eventually turn solid colour. There are, however, many delightful true mini hostas and some of them grow quite rapidly. (If you look through this forum, there are a couple of threads about minis, many complete with pictures). And if they grow too rapidly, consider dividing them for use as a border or simply give them away or sell them to feed your habit.
