Post #7163864

I placed a message on this forum some time ago regarding a Hosta I had got very cheaply from my local market stall.
You were very kind and identified it as Blue Cadet, which is unusual for me to remember a cultivar name, as I am normally only any good at species.
I did not expect it to do much this year at all, as I was dreading the slugs and snails.
I only found one snail on it and that was recently, so somehow it survived the usual onslaught by them.
Although we have Hedgehogs, which have had a family, so this may account for the lack of the pests this year.
However apart from the one hole the snail made and the split leaf from the drips of a 35 foot Phoenix canarensis over it, here it was it looked like yesterday.
Which is not bad as it was 40℉ in the night.
Thank you for your help in the past.
Regards from England.
Neil.
