Yes there are Blue Mouse Ears and another one a not sure which one. I did order several hostas just for the wreath. Ric felt that anything in the 6-12 inch was too big so that limited me to only the very small ones. From the very small ones I gave one away to DIL and lost one planted a couple in the wall. So when I went to get them for the wreath realized that I didn't have near as many as I had expected.
Sometimes when I'm busy I will water them hanging by putting my wand on soaker and letting the water soak down through. But really I get best results when I take them down and lay them on the ground use the soaker setting and then go back an hour or so later and hang them back up.
RCN, Thanks for the ID on the Tradescantia. Everyone from the HGHA brought extra plants to share. We had 2 large tables full of extra plants that you could help yourself too. As well as what you brought. The Tradescantia was on that table and the Gardner that brought it didn't have and ID for it. Not sure I will keep it in the center of my wreath but I just loved the plant and figured I could move it to the garden. I was going to post it in the ID Forum.
Bec, Love the sign.
I'll post some pic later in a couple of weeks to show you how they fill out.
Here is my last turtle, this one a gift from my daughter another Pier1 find.
