A Little Hanky Panky

Hosta enthusiasts across the country are busting open their piggybanks as some new exciting varieties are hitting catalogs -- and wallets -- in a big way.

I keep waffling on whether or not to order the new 'Hanky Panky' (pictured at left, and available online from either Plant Delights or Naylor Creek)...but $35?!?!

Someone needs to remind me that most hostas don't really like the dry, blazing North Texas summers.

(Now...where did I put my wallet...?)
