I really like hostas, and feel I need to start a Hungarian hosta collection.

I don't have a lot of different hostas...I have sieboldiana, patriot, blue cadet, and two others with yellow in the leaf...really need to get a box system for tags...lol. All of my hostas could stand to be divided as well. I was counting today...I have six in one garden area alone... I must have at least 20 clumps. My fav is patriot... love the nice bright white. When they bloom will have to re-photograph to get details of blossom. I think they are an excellent plant; their foliage is interesting and the flowers are elegant and some are even scented... can't beat that. You also mentioned that there aren't many geraniums to be found in Hungary perhaps you could establish collections of both plants!! also...just found half a dozen lily beetles on my Asiatic Lily 'Vermeer'... I've been checking every hour or so... grrrr.
