I thought I would add some pictures from our gardens. I love Hosta and Daylilies and have so many that I have lost count! I will just post a few for now but will post more in the future as our gardens expand and mature. I like to collect rare, unique and easy to identify Hosta, looks like I will have to dig up more flower beds to add more!!! ENJOY!
