They are all used and all a bit dirty (sorry I’ve not cleaned them!) but all useable.
Take one, some or all of them… any still here in a weeks time will be going to the dump.

So now’s the time to think about protecting them by making your home quake safe. The good news is there’s a lot you can do right now, like securing tall and heavy furniture, and getting a builder to look at your chimney.

Hostas die down to ground level over the winter, come into lush growth in the Spring and throw up flower spikes in the Summer.
This Hosta has variegated cream and pale green leaves . I have had it growing over many years and it is a consistent strong plant in the garden. Gives a cushiony feel to the garden. It wont grow more than a third of a metre high.
This Hosta in the photo, can be left in its pot for years or you could slip it out of its pot into a partly shady or shady area , dampish perhaps, but they really are quite hardy plants.
It is growing in a large 24cm pot and the pot comes with the plant. 🥹😀
Thanks for looking
Pickup is in Kuripuni.

Well looked after, has flown through every WOF in the 5.5 years we’ve had it.
