Hello from Coastal Georgia Zone 8B! I just love seeing your sweet little darling running up to the camera and saying Bumblebee Junction in her sweet voice.
Youโre doing an amazing job with your beautiful garden!
I love this idea for repurposing both items! Very nice! Wonder if all hostas are edible? I have a three, but Iโve never heard that before? I will have to do some research. Lol
I don't know what's going on, but YouTube won't let me press the thumbs up button. Boooooo YouTube.
I went out, and came back, and they allowed me to give it a thumbs ๐.
You always give me the inspiration to get out in my garden.
My Hostas are very large and gorgeous. So much so , someone stole 2 in the very front of my home. ๐. That's the kind of neighbors I have. They come up every year, when their not stolen. G-D knows who took them and will judge them some day. G-D Bless.
I never take them in during the winter. Even with tons of snow. Come spring they just regrow over and over again. That's why their in the garden, so they can spread out as much as they like. ๐
Hostas will over winter. I live in Pennsylvania and if they overwinter here they will there.
I did not know that hostas were edible. Is it a certain type?
I love hostas I wish there was a way for me to send you some of my elephant ear hosta
Hey Mark and Tina, what a neat stand idea๐.
Good choice for part Sun and Shade ๐.
I hope they do well!
JO JO IN VT ๐๐
With all your time and efforts involved Tina, you have created a very attractive porch to your home! May your flowers bloom warmly and your raised beds produce deliciously!! -Bob…
"poisonous to cats and dogs" Thank you Mark for the warning.
BEAUTIFUL!!!
Nice up-cycle reuse on the tomato cages ๐
Perfect disclaimer! Grow and eat only what you want to eat.๐
Is that tub you are mixing the soil in a cement mixing tub. Itโs a great size for that job.
We have Hosta's and Bleeding Heart's in 3 beds across the front
of our house. So nice to have the beauty of them, come back every
Spring, no questions asked. Ours are inground, permanent, and
ground freezes deep here. I don't know if they'd winter over well in
buckets outside. Dormancy is dormancy. Bucket on the porch, or a
bucket in the cellar? We just let ours die back to nothing every year,
clean up the beds each spring and mulch over them with sea food
compost. When they sprout, bark mulch cover. I'll send ya some pics.
PS, There's 2 Peony's in there too! ๐

Have tons of hostas around here, I had one you would probably love , it was called mouse ears, kept it in a container, it was itty bitty, the cutest thing ever, and had tiny flowers when it bloomed, kept in a container so the deer would not eat them, but sadly it did not come back this year. Expensive but I might try to find another. Plants on the porch are doing good, hummingbirds love the hosta flowers.
Wonderfully awesome, I have several old tomato cages that'll be turned into plant stands now ๐
Your porch looks fabulous with all the flowers ๐ธ and hostasโs !! ๐ชด
