They're cute little thing, Mark!

Cute is the word. I look at them every day. I was thinking of making a theatre for them.

It's amazing how far on some are yet others stil tight noses

Good idea Mark, mine are just emerging...

[Lina Hesseling]

Mark, you could make a stumpery. ( Is this the right word?)

Lina,

I'd never heard of a stumpery and had to go and look it up.  Some very interesting stuff.  Just looking at the google pictures of stumperies, there are some amazing results.  Now if I had some more space....... 

[mark smyth]

I have a peat bed that needs remade that could become a stumpery but stumps are difficult to find especially weather worn.

[Lina Hesseling]

You can ask Prince Charles for advice. (Not, that you would need it!) If I am correct, I have seen him on t.v. with his stumpery.

I think he was on Gardeners World or a programme about his estate

Your babies are very cute Mark. When it stops raining I'll take a picture of my single seedling.

[mark smyth]

That will be good to see. How long did it take to germinate?

This afternoon I went to the Hosta specialist here in N Ireland. I should have stayed at home. He relieved me of money

Recently I saw "The book of Little Hostas".
Written by Michael Shadrack.

Looked very nice. Maybe something for you, Mark and Lesley.

Lina.

Lina it's the worst book ever
