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.

Strip Tease


Taken in early spring, you can see the faint markings which give it the name.

Lemon Meringue


I like this hosta, large round luscious lemon yellow leaves with white backs underneath

Rickrack


This is a smaller hosta with good substance. Love the rippled edges.

Immense


The name aptly describes it. This is a big hosta. The pic was taken in early spring, it quickly smothered surrounding plants.

Golden Waffles gets more yellow in color (known as lutescence) as the season goes on.
