    I have thoroughly enjoyed everyone's gorgeous pics.
    This is better than shopping in catalogs!

    I'd like to play too, so I'll show a couple that I haven't seen posted yet.

    Big Daddy only three years old:

    And Blue Mammoth, about 5 feet across:

    Wicked nice photos! I've added a few to my wish list which is already too long and we're only through the B's!!

    Some more B's to add-

    Baby Bunting - starting to fill out

    Blizzard - new 2010, division from a mature plant divided in spring, didn't add any leaves rest of year. Hope the roots got settled and it sets some seeds this year.

    Blue Hawaii - 2nd year, anyone have a mature plant to post in the B's

    Hosta 'Blue Ivory' - leaves a bit bigger in 2nd year, hoping for multiple eyes in 2011

    Hosta 'Blue Jay' - 2nd year

    Hosta 'Blue Shadows' - new, love this color combo

    Hosta 'Bob Deane' - 2nd year, leaves got more interesting

    jah, Bressingham Blue is a real stunner:

    It wouldn't grow in deep shade here in zone 4b, until we put one in all day sun (with a soaking hose around it).

    Big bad boy, eh?
