I started the gardens at our townhome 17 years ago. They really transformed 8-9 years ago when I expanded the space, and expanded again. Back then, the gardens were maintained by the homeowners, and maintain them we did – my husband and I – outside our place. I went through a massive hosta phase. Lots of varieties. Then I started in with daylilies, and got hooked.
The hostas in the gardens here are starting to show their age. I have divided some and given them to neighbors. This year I need to divide my favorites – 9 ‘Blue Mouse Ears’ hostas. They are getting fairy rings.
More decisions – where do the divisions go? Onto new areas here? To other gardens in our association? Up north? All of the above, I suspect. But for now they sit undisturbed until after bloom, which is highly anticipated, at least by me, every July.
