Hosta


I want to introduce "Hosta" to everyone.
Hosta is common in Japan too and there are many kind of them.
Of course, we can enjoy their flower and their leaves feed our eyes all the year round.

I got them from my mother-in-law.
There are several types of them in her garden.
I chose this one because this flower was the most cute among them.
The other hostas which she has grown also have beautiful leaves, but this is my favorite!

It is not, but Japanese people sometimes eat a kind of hostas.
We call them(eatable) "URUI" and eat them boiled.
