It is very small and I hope it doesn't die. BTW wanted to say I like your writing. I check this site every day. I found one seedling and I have planted it. It is very small and I hope it doesn’t die.

We just bought a home last year and my parents are giving us some of their (ever overgrown) hostas to plant along the fence near our driveway. Great looking, low maintenence. Gotta love them. Does anyone know if spring or fall is better time to plant them? p.s. my second time to your blog and I love it!
