by the holes in the leaves you see that somehow they were water burned...my poor garden..it's taken such neglect, and they've still put up some of the prettiest flowers on any plant! Ephemera!

Hello F1 - is that you?! :-)

I've got a Hosta similar to this one but it has pure white flowers - never tried sniffing it tho.....I will try to remember to - I didn't know some smelt nice...

Yes, it's me Sid....:-) I have one with solid green leaves and large white blooms that is very fragrant. It's called ' Royal Standard'. It smells like my native sweet honeysuckle. I posted a pic of it for you.

It's that lovely lily scent they have... these are not scented but I have the later bloomers which do have a scent...very slight though. Will be on the lookout for Royal Standard. I think I've decided on more shrubs and hosta in my next garden and fewer perennials.
