    @Hostafan1 do you have white feather? It looks very pretty in the adverts but is it as pale as it looks?

    @debs64 , You're not alone there . 
    Some of the flowers are lovely, some less so. I just don't have time to remove them.

    I find they don’t seem to match the foliage if that makes sense?

    I'd agree that some aren't exactly enhanced by their own flowers.

    I only keep the ones which have white flowers @debs64.
    I really dislike peely-wally lilac colours, which many of them have.

    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Here's where they are now:




    And here's where some of them will be going.





    Anyone remember "The Rock"??

    Hi all, bit of a mystery in my garden. I had about a dozen hostas some in ground and some in pots and they have all disappeared! No sign of anything above ground of any of them. Is it too early? Planning to dig around this afternoon and see if anything remains below the soil. Anyone else had anything similar? 
    Hi @debs64 😊 
    I took this pic of some of my Hostas the other day ... you’ll see some varieties are racing ahead and some you can only just see if you zoom in ... they’ve all been in the same quiet corner of the terrace and treated all the same ... your will appear soon I’m sure
