I don't know the name Cinderella but it looks lovely. Do you get less slug damage with it in a pot?

Yes I think so, I sometimes get snails around the rim, but not a lot, and a few carefully placed slug pellets usually do the trick. Thanks Annella

I've not seen a Hosta like this the leaves are so narrow? I thought at first it was in need of dividing? But then I looked up narrow leaved Hostas and found Pineapple punch, Purple lady fingers, or Praying hands? could it be the first one?

Thats interesting. Might be getting near to division time, but it has always been narrow leaved like this and puts on a lovely show, there are masses of flower stems. I will have a look on google myself.

Just googled it. Looks like Hosta Stilleto. Leaves narrow green cream edges, flowers lavender, big bloom production.

Stilleto - sounds like a good description of this!

It does, doesn't it.

I will look out for Stilleto then, thanks
