    Steve, your picture of Dancing Queen shows why it is so popular. And that picture of Dinky Donna just put that one on my list

    Here's my D contribution: Dragon of the Seas, year 2.

    Oh, I like that Dragon of the Seas!

    Dixie Chickadee has been a good grower, did put out an all green eye in 2013.

    Dancing Queen didn't look like much the first couple years, but she's turning into a beauty.

    Dress Blues must be delicious. Something eats it every year, no matter what I spray it with, while nothing around it gets touched.

    Only pic I took of Devil's Advocate, starting to suffer from fall weather, but here it is, none-the-less:

    Hippie, loved your Dinky Donna. How much sun does it get? Mine looks so bad I didn't photograph it, and I'm wondering if it's in too much shade.

    I am just drooling over the Dream Queen and Dream Weaver pictures. Picked up a couple of Dream Queens this year and now I must patiently wait to see what the next few years bring.

    Another Dark Star.

    I had the pleasure of visiting a few private gardens this year. Thought I would add this one since there is no picture of it here yet. I think it is a great example of what we would want to strive for.

    Bernd,

    I think you've got your pictures mixed up. That's not Dance With Me. It looks like Journey's End. Here's what Dance With Me looks like.

    Don, you are right, it is legal now in your state. So you bought 4 plants I can see, threw your hosta seedlings out, put those above under light, and once a while cull a leaf for relaxation purposes?
    Will these be now your shade plants in your new bed under the pines in front of your house?
    Happy New Year! Bernd

  • don_in_colorado

    LOL Nah, Bernd, just a funny pic posted by Leafwatcher (hmmmm) back in April, of 'Hostas' purchased from Lowe's. They are NOTORIOUS for mis-labeling plants! They CAN'T be 'Dream Queen', right. They are far too vigorous and fast-growing. : P

    I'd say these are more of a 'Sun' annual variety, If I'm not mistaken.

    Happy New Year to you as well., Bernd!

    Not generally a big fan of the lance-leaved minis, but that 'Dragon Tails' is really, really nice, Mc T.

    This is 'DeLuxe Edition'. Well, it WILL be. Hopefully sooner than later. : )

    Oh, this alphabet is whetting my appetite for hosta gardening. I cannot wait. Love the Dragon Warrior. Love the Dick Ward pictures, one of the first hosta I purchased in 2010 and it never fails to impress. Then I'm so pleased to have seeds from Steve_Mass from his Dancing Queen...quite a looker.

    Dan Patch is a fragrant introduction from the Savory family. Named for a famous trotter (horse for you city slickers).

    Dance With Me with Mango Tango on its left in Aug 2013

    Dancing Queen is nice and yellow, but with no ruffles like Steve's has. May 2013

    Dark Shadows

    Dawn's Early Light is off to a slow start, sad to say.

    Derriere is OS from Jim Hartmann and hasn't begun to "spread out"....

    Devil's Poker came as a gift by Savory's who introduced it.
