Hosta Still Going to Bloom


While I was away in Virginia the deer decided to make a feast out of the beautiful large hostas that are growing at the corner of my house. What a disappointment it is to see that site when I drive up to the front of the house.

But, this week the hostas are budding to bring forth flowers. The missing leaves are still unsightly, but the flowers will bring forth some joy.

It is a never ending battle trying to keep the deer at bay from eating up all the plantings. We have treated everything with egg and water, at the moment it is working.
