    thanks... I, too, like TT... and also the smaller Tong Twister... dense, solid clumps with extra "life" coming from the form of the leaves... along with the good color... nice new generation...

    I like that plant, especially the one you have, HH, it looks great with its shiny and curly dark green leaves. Mine is smaller and got blotchy this spring. I tested it for HVX, but didn't have it, probably got affected by frost. The new leaves are fine. Bernd

    I'm a fan of the darker leafed hosta too. Did you want other people to post random dark leafed hosta, or only Twilight Time?

    Been very busy planting hosta, new arrivals, and indexing the pictures taken over the month of July. So I'll post about one or two, and then head for the bed. Must get up very early in the morning.

    longissima species

    Jaws got the color, just developing its other traits

    Lakeside Full Tide

    Blue Angel

    nIGHTLIFE...HAVE TO SAY, THIS IS THE DARkest one on any day of the week

    Just LOVE Nightlife

    Second Wind...right up there with Nightlife

    Stiff Upper Lip...dark on top and sort of white beneath, dark and very stiff

    Lakeside Pebbles...for the smaller needs

    King of Spades

    See why I like King of Spades?

    Candy Dish...dark even sitting in a good bit of sun, accidentally I might add

    Lederhosen has it all....just shifting from blue to green here, will get its deep leathery/plastic dark sheen soon. Plus it has plantaginea in it.

    I have a new hosta, Dark Shadows, which I hope lives up to its name.

    and that's all for tonight. over and out.

    Here's my Potomac Pride. Gets 2 hrs sun, then shade for 4 hrs., then sun for another 2-3 hrs then shade again. Everytime I have a garden tour, they ask about this one.She's looking a little beat up :(
