Hostas


The hostas are in bloom.


Can you imagine this blossom 
as a beautiful wedding dress for a garden fairy?

    Yes I can imagine thos blossoms as wedding gown for a fairy. They are really lovely but my slugs love them as much as I do. So mine are all gone. :-(

  5. Where are the holes in your hostas?! Mine are like lacework at this stage of the season from all the slugs and snails. Beautiful blooms, so delicate.

  6. You are reminding me that I need to go check and see whether our plants are in bloom now too. Such a luscious plant and beautiful blossom.

  8. I can imagine it as a gown but also perhaps as a pixie hat?

  9. How PRETTY, Gayle! It DOES look like a dress for a fairy! The deer have eaten every single one of my blooms as well as every yellow daylily, too. Grrrrr!
    I even had a chipmunk coming up onto the deck to devour my cherry tomatoes in the pots. Double Grrrrr!

    I love your sauteed summer squash, red peppers over the chipotle Pasta
    and tomatoes/basil. Wowzers, did that sound goooood!
    I'm going to try something similar soon. Thanks for the idea.

    fondly,
    Rett

  10. They are lovely - and I agree - just the perfect thing for a fairy's wedding.

  11. They DO look like little fairy dresses! I was just taking a picture of some hosta flowers the other day, and I was surprised by how pretty they really are!

  12. The minute I saw the bloom on your hosta, I thought enchanting!!! Your hosta's are just blooming now?
    Hang your herbs out of sunlight for a couple of weeks depending on what you want to do with them you could email me and I'll let you know...
    Happy Sunday, Rosemary...xx

  13. Your hosta looks lovely. Mine didn't do so good this year without much rain.

  14. Pretty photos! I planted my first hostas this year. So far they are doing okay in spite of the terrible heat, I water them often.
