Hosta (Hosta lancifolia (Plantain lily))

My dwarf Hosta came through the winter ok and is now in bloom.

I have only three Sticki - this, another dwarf one, and Royal Standard. I'd probably have more if it weren't for my dislike of varigated leaves....

i rather like variagated leaves ~ i think maybe more so in this garden cos its shady so the white helps

I have a couple that I have to tolerate as the flowers are so spectacular - Iris japonica and Alstromeria psittacina.
Plus a Dracaena marginata, which has a very fine red margin to the leaves.

Thanks Simbad!
It'll have to be really truly and awesomely outstanding for me to want it, but each to their own - it'd be boring if we were all into the same things.
