Pic(k) of the Week: Hosta

My grandmother loved hosta plants; they ringed her Brooklyn, New York, house, front and back. We, as kids, would call them Nana plants.

Many years later, hosta ring my backyard; several of the rhizomes were originally dug from Nana's garden. Now, as they bloom in late June, I think of her, and smile.
