Oddly enough, I’ve always had a mental block with hostas. I know what they are but I can never think of the name when I see them.

Great patio set.

I’m the same way with plants. I wouldn’t know a hosta from a rose. I had to double check with my wife on the names when doing a post about our own landscaping project this week. Love the patio and furniture – they look great!

Love the red for the patio table and chairs. I am not great at remembering the name of plants either so completely understand your confusion. Bottom line is the names aren’t so important as how great they look and I think your patio is looking great.

Your porch is gorgeous! The red patio furniture is to die for! My husband and I tossed around the idea of a pergola instead of a screened in porch… I just don’t know what to do!

If you’re talking about the tall plant with orangish bloom at the top, it’s a canna.

Calla lillies are usually shorter and their bloom is more wrapped around itself.

Love your blog and attitude.
