| I'd like to see a trimmed hosta... *snorts* Go to a site like Bluestone Perennials and use their advanced search options. |

| WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING? The perennial forum here on GW might be a more productive location for this question. Have you tried there? You also might want to specify light/soil type if you want helpful suggestions. |

| 90% of the fun in specialized plant selection is doing the research. Here are just a few plants families to explore that might meet your goal. Study miniature rose catalogs. The Thalictrum family has some interesting low growers. Santolina varieties. Ditto, Columbine family. Bleeding heart. |

| Look into some of the Veronica varieties; some of the campanulas; heuchera. |
