Sun Catcher


A pretty little hosta with deep impressed veins that is most yellow early on, eventually turning a chartreuse color.

Avocado


Avocado is very similar to Holy Mole though I like to call it Holy Moly--anyway this pic was taken in spring, colors eventually settle down to green leaves with yellow to chartreuse interior--a large hosta.

Niagara Falls


Here is the aforementioned Niagara Falls. Leaves have a nice corrugation and toughness.

Green Piecrust


A nice big hosta, I like the big ones a lot. Some say Green Piecrust is similar to Niagara Falls. I grow both and I think NF is more upright and darker. I'll post a pic of that one next.
Here is Green Piecrust.

June


This one is always on everyone's short list of favorites. June looks good from the moment it appears in spring to when it goes down in the fall, usually one of the last hostas to go dormant for the year.
