Hosta  'Halcyon' (Hosta)

I quite like the Lamium 'mingling' with it!

I agree, they are perfect partners!

Halcyon is meant to be a slug resistant one, what's your opinion Spritz? You know how many slugs n snails we get in our garden.....billions and gazillions! Always on the lookout for plants which slugs/snails don't like to devour.

I can't really say, Greenfingers,as for some unknown reason, my 'orrible big fat snails stay at the other side of the garden and chomp my Clematis instead of my Hostas! :-)

Especially when the lamium blooms.

That's a lovely lamium too.

I think it's either 'White Nancy' or 'Beacon Silver'... oh, my memory! :-(

The hostas all disappear for the winter, M, then you see little shoots appearing in the spring...and have to protect them from voracious snails!

The lamium is evergreen, though - or ever-silver, lol!
