Fellow #hostaholic @KariSamuel ... are these seed pods on a hosta?

Yes Sweetie they are, but I personally have never, ever have successfully started seeds for propagation! Hostas are too easy to split and transplant!

True! Was super curious when I saw them, so wanted to check with an expert. 😉 @KariSamuel

Help me identify this plant... It's a huge #hosta - the leaves are wider than a foot. #plantid

Now that I think about it, maybe it's not a hosta... It just looks similar?

Pretty certain it's Royal Standard hosta

@kipcott I looked that up, and it didn't look as large as this... I could be wrong about this bring Empress Wu, but it sure seems close.

Definitely Empress Wu! I have one also, be careful what is planted near or it will overshadow other plants quickly. I had to move everything next to it this year before they died from lack of sunlight. 😁

@jeanbean56 Thank you so much! I'll go back and check to make sure nothing gets buried. :)
