| How lucky you are to have streaked Hostas. They were one of the first seeds I wintersowed, simply because it was sent as a bonus. I don't know the parents but they were all blue. I am growing some again from my Hosta Yellow River, the only hosta (other than those blue ones) that produces seeds. The little seedlings are now poking through so it'll be interesting to see what emerges. You will enjoy raising those baby hostas- they are just so cute. My columbine are very slow this year. I don't think any are streaked. Well done!!! |

| I'll have to double check my records to see the names... some of the hosta seeds were just 'streaked breeders choice,' but some were named. The columbine are woodside, which were purchased. |

| Those are so pretty - mine are real tiny. So glad they are doing well for you! |

| I believe you have to wait to the second year on hostas to see what the leaves are really going to look like, so don't dump the hosta seedlings the first year! |
