hosta late?

I'm glad you started this thread, I was also getting a little concerned.

Must be patient, must be patient......

 

Hi all, I still havn't seen any signs yet but I am still hopeful. I have a few hostas in a raised bed walled with slate which helps me control slugs to a certain degree. I combat the slugs outside the bed wall before they get in.

 

All mine are showing now apart from 'Fire & Ice'
I've been spreading my ashes from the chimnea around mine,upto now all ok

 

That is a good tip ! Thank you, I'll do this once we fire up the Chimnea.

 

Mine haven't come up yet.

 

Some have a bit of protrusion above ground, but others still seem in the land of nod! Must have another look as has been about a week since I last checked them all. They have been so reliable I just wait..... lol

 

I have 3 hostas and all of them have buds poking out now...

ah ah ... we have lift off! A few signs poking through now. I'm a bit more happy.

I'll make a note of the date so I don't panic next year.

Thanks everyone.

You already have: this thread!

So glad yours are now showing signs of life - my one is looking really happy and thriving (thanks to our @Lolimac )

 

@"M" I'm guessing your Ducks and clucks don't like Hostas....luckily my clucks have only murdered one of mine so far

 

Erm ...

a. It is in a pot and kept well away from beaks
b. My quackers were "dispatched" this week by Mr Fox - - all gone!

C'est la vie

 

Hate to be pedantic, but that is verbatim, what I said. Did you copy and paste. No probs, but you should quote.

Welcome.

 

Awww Mum....real sorry to hear that....

 

I hope I have not scared @belling off

The Hosta's out front have gone from being invisible just a week or so ago, to having several leaves a couple of inches above ground, (pics later), whereas what was a week or so ago, the most up, which is in the back garden is still only showing shoots

So sorry to read about the 'quackers' M

 

Sorry about your Ducks M .

My hostas are just showing through now . I only have two in containers , not sure of the name but its the most common one you see . Large green leaves with a white edging (?)
