| never to second guess chris... and the pic is out of focus.. but it would fit in the tiara range ... and i have no clue what the limey version of that is.. lol.. could be limey lisa.. lol .. early color can sometimes be a bit 'off' .. for ID purposes.. on a green hosta .... especially if forced early or grown indoors ... [and a hosta in bloom in feb has been forced early] ken |

| Sorry about the somewhat out of focus picture, that is what you get trying to take a close-up with a tablet computer. In the dark. I looked up Limey Lisa on the hosta library and I think you are right! Thanks! I love it, so cute! Sandy |

| A little better picture, maybe, in the daylight. |

| After looking at the Hosta Library,my bad! I forgot that Cracker Crumbs was a variegated hosta. Phil |

| I'm pretty sure Chris was right, Limey Lisa, but thanks anyway, Phil! Sandy |

| Looks like my Limey Lisa. As I recall, I really liked this hosta because the leaves had great substance, kind of thick and leathery.

| If Limey Lisa has thick leathery leaves, then I'd be likely to place her next to Lederhosen. That hosta becomes extremely leathery and almost oily shiny dark green. It is a leaf I find very distinctive, and surely qualifies for the 10 foot rule. Love those compact smaller hosta with a lot of personality, like your Limey Lisa. It means I can have MORE HOSTA in my limited space. |
