Not sure why I stick with white feather it is certainly no beauty, perhaps because it took me so long to get it established

At least yours is still alive! How deep is that shade it's in? Looks kind of scorched...

@emch it is fairly well shaded it just is not a good grower - not drought chlorophyll in the leaves.

Hosta white feather #hostachallenge-2022. At least it is more than a couple of inches above ground.😁

That’s looking very striking 💚 Mine is mostly pale green this year, not creamy-white 😢

@jacaranda @anges @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom I have to say it goes green later in the year and took at least 5/6 years before it had more than a couple of sickly looking leaves, also gad to move it a couple of times till it found its happy place

Patience is a virtue and in the case of my hosta white feather it has taken 10 years worth to get to this point.
