I like the hosta. I have just planted a couple of hosta bulbs at the side of OH's little pond. Supposedly they do well in that type of spot. I will let you know how they get on.

I love the silvery flat seed pods for dried arrangements~! It also seeds itself like mad; if anyone would like some seed I'd be glad to send it when they're ripe later in the season.....

Very pretty plants Eileen! I have a plant I can't identify in my garden - in flower at the mo. Will try and get a photo tomorrow.

Like the tradescantia - hard to think of it as a houseplant from your attractive picture.

Odd, we have no trouble at all with slugs, luckily!

Are we talking about the same plant? I wasn't aware that it could be grown indoors; it actually grows wild here; although it is offered in some catalogues: just looked in T & M and they offer it for $4.95 a packet!!

Oooh, a mystery plant! Maybe I can identify it for you as you did for my stranger, which turned out to be celandine!
