Oh, Sue I love this one. It has white-ish blooms that are SOOOOO fragrant. The hummers even loved to visit it. You shouldn't have any trouble at all getting folks to jump on this trade. :)
Sue, you have mail :-)
Carol
Sue: you have more mail.
I would like to trade for your hosta. You have mail.
Sue, any hostas left? I need a few more to fill in under some of my lilac bushes.
Whatcha looking for as far as trades go???
Hi Marc - My trade page is fairly up to date. Would really love to find a female Hops Vine or Foxtail Lily.
But anything on my wish list would be great. Or if you have some other plants - let me know because half the time I never know that I need a plant until someone tells me about it! LOL .
And yes, right now I have about 9 left!!
Uh...now I have 3 left!
Okay....I have the ajuga listed on your "wanted" list.
Will that do for a good trade?
I have city of portland canna... have any left...???

WOWIE!! Got home tonight and there's this huge 4 ft long box about 8" wide and 4" thick. I thought......"now what did I order that I forgot about???" Then I remembered a Hibiscus I ordered and thought..."yeah, it's here!".
Wrong! It's Sue's box o' monster hosta!! Glad I sent that extra large fountain grass clump! I can only begin to guess how big the mama plant was! Thanks for one of the best trades I've had! I don't even think this hosta knew it left WA state! Brenda
LOL Larry! Yes plant in shade, and check out this page: http://plantsdatabase.com/go/2906/index.html
Tell Loree to plant them in shade/or at least afternoon shade. Water every day and they should perk up in a week or so. These things are tough as nails!
Brenda I'm so glad they traveled so well!!!
A bit of history about these divisions, I have been growing that Hosta since 1997 I believe. Over the years, I had divided it a couple of times with no fuss.
Recieved mine last evening too Sue....WOW!!! I opened the box, and unwrapped this big beautiful 2 ft tall hosta clump, and was about to toss the box not my recycle bin when I noticed a second wrapped clump. You dear lady are very generous....thank you SO much! I promise to send you an extar large clump of Callas and a few extra iris tubers.
Thank you for an awesome trade!!!
Whoo hoo!!
Look at the size of this clump that arrived today! They are huge - I put a milk jug next to them to compare. Thanks so much, Sue.
I got mine too. I've already emailed Sue. What a great clump of Hosta and we also traded for her Red Ditch Lily. It was a great trade. They both looked so fresh--she packs great.
Sue, WOW! again...lol got my package and the plants looked like they were just taken fresh from the ground....AWESOME packing and healthy plants too.....
Thank you so much for the trade...:-)
Still doin the 'Happy Plant Dance'
I'm glad they are getting to their destinations safely and looking good!
Debby I will send you a photo of the red- it is just starting to bloom. It's actually closer to a burgundy color.
Ohhh, I'd love to see a photo of her. I got the hosta planted, then had company come. Tomorrow for sure the daylily gets planted in ground. Right now she is in a temporary pot of dirt and looking great.
Sue - your hosta looked just great! so very happy with it - then, last Thurs., the bunnies came visiting...they chopped 3/4 of the leaves off about 3 inches high. Oh, they make me so mad! Very thankful they left me enough to keep the plant growing, but it sure would have grown better with the leaves it arrived with!!!!!! Our cat and dog eliminated one bunny family in May but apparently more moved in! My retired neighbour really hates it when the cat uses her flowerbed as his personal restroom but doesn't complain because he is such a good rabbiter. Her DH used to sit outside with his .22 and blast them. Very effective! :)
