this was a prototype polystyrene one if you look at the very bottom of the picture you can just see another plant coming through a hole I made in the side,only problem it prefers to grow upwards and have to prune it, a mistake without a doubt.

not seen these miniature Hostas before, love them. What a good idea maybe when I change one of my sink gardens I should buy some and have all Hostas in it. Love them all. Do you think a sink garden would be deep enough to take them, it is about 4 inches deep? Now you have set me off thinking. lol.

these are real tiny ones Miniature.'Remember Me' while still classed as small is double the size of miniatures.
4in deep for small ones would be ok providing it has part shade
