December (Second Edition)

 I was not going to post a second edition for December but then I began to have a discussion on one of the Hosta Forums.  The discussion was important enough in my mind to post my response here FIRST rather than to the forum.  Please note this will be re-posted on the forum in question.

Extra Edition: Hosta as food ...

To my Serbian followers:  A US headline is suggesting that food is becoming scare in Serbia.  You may want to investigate Hosta as a vegetable source.  Asians for hundreds of years have eaten hosta!  In contemporary terms it can be prepared like Asparagus or collected like Lettuce.

WARNING: Some varieties can be toxic and poisonous.  Our far east Asian followers here may be able to offer more information about Hosta as food than I can.

September (Second Edition)

Winter is coming and the plants know it!

September (First Edition)

We've had a string 50º nights followed by a second stretch of 90º days since I posted here last …

Hi, over here, ... I am what you might call an obsessed Hosta grower.  Some call me 'Hosta Man Kelley'.  Everyone who comes here at first will be catching up on where these conversations are at.
