Just received my order from both Land of Giants and Plant Delights today. New ones to the collection: Powder Keg, Galaxy, Blue Mouse Ears Supreme, Paradise Island, High Fashion, Snake Eyes, and Tattoo. Trying to add some streaked varieties to my collection.

On another note I also took some photos today. Hope you like...

Nice, Doug! You are well on your way. To what? Well, to hosta bliss, that's what. : )

Nice haul,

Your Spilt Milk looks like it's mature. Had it for a while?

Mouse Ears is perfect. It looks to be in the ground just like a larger hosta too.

You made a nice haul of new plants. Love to see them when you are ready.

Your subject line is misleading. The photos you posted are simply beautiful, but those are not the "New hosta arrived". Post more pics of your new babies...please? ;-)

Don: my Spilt Milk has been in the ground about 6 years, very happy and quite large. One of my favorites.

Babka: will do! They looked a little rough right out if the box, but I'll get some photos up soon.
