I am in a new house now so most everything is new (to this property) but yeah... I was thinking that about a few that seemed odd, but kinda wrote it off to having moved many of them 2 1/2 years ago so this is their "leap" year from the setback. I have also found 3 sports, which is unusual (for me) too. Totally not complaining, Ive never had happier hostas.

Yes, you are right even here near to Berlin this is the case.

Not a big deal for me;all my plants grow very tall,and always have. It's the environment. Phil

Phil, when you say 'it's the environment' do you mean they are reaching for more light or need more room or ?

I'm asking because I have a Halcyon which, last year, was really full, but this year is 'leggy' with less leaves...it's other wise pretty healthy looking...

Thanks
