There’s a whole world of tiny hostas out there that are just starting to get the attention they deserve. They all seem to have such cute names, like ‘Bitsy Gold’, ‘Corkscrew’, ‘Popo’, ‘Tiny Tears’, and ‘Radio Waves’. Here’s one of my favorites from Eve and Per Thyrum’s collection in Wilmington, Delaware. This one’s called ‘Dixie Chickadee’. Adorable!

Love those little hostas. My favorite is 'Blue Mouse Ears'. I've got one spot in the back gardens where I'm creating a little ground cover with it.
Just adorable... I have a Hosta in a trough called Baby Bunting. I think it is one of the smallest of Hostas growing to about 2 inches!!! So Cute!
What is the plant behind the Hosta? The one with the round leaves?
To YankeeWoman they look like coral bells ...Maybe someone sees something different. I will be moving some of my Hosta plants in the next 2 days....Oh Boy!!I can start another NEW garden...I have enjoyed seeing all the different Hostas ...
