Hostas



Many years ago, when I moved into this house, I sent away for a dozen hostas from a nursery in the midwest. I planted them all in the Fall when they arrived, and they all came up the following Spring. Over the last 9 years, they've grown and spread out all over the yard. I've really enjoyed having something so beautiful in the shady areas of my yard.



This is what they look like this year in the back yard, nestled under this beautiful fuschia basket, next to the armillary sphere my aunt brought back from Copenhagen years ago. It's a lovely corner of the yard in which to enjoy a cup of coffee on a busy afternoon.
