Maybe I am stretching this theme a little, but I am very fond of the stripes of nature which turn a plain green plant into a very interesting display. None are better than this variegated hosta and though I love all hostas, I find this simple one of the most pleasing additions to my garden.
Striped or variegated hosta

So many hostas - wonderful!. I love them but sadly so do the local slugs and snails. Here a hosta is better known as slug caviar!
stretch away, i like this take. enjoy the weekend.
I love the way you showed us stripes in nature. Those are beautiful hostas. I didn't even think about my variegated hostas. I hope you have a great weekend home after all your travels.
Lovely shot - I have plenty of them - beautiful plants.
That's a great take on it!
Those are healthy looking plants :)

Nice and creative entry. Welcome back to Photo Hunting, jmb. :)
Stripes of nature :)
That's a beautiful hosta JMB.
Mine are the plain variety though I do like their flowers. Jams is right - the slugs do a number on ours too.
I didn't consider green plants even though I have a few in my garden. ish.
Long time no see, jmb. :)
Happy weekend!
Heheh... But those are pretty plants. Thanks for the visit.

A good idea in the absence of zebras.
Mine are the blinds in our living room.
I'm really enjoying seeing how stripes are created all around us - seeing so many different ways.
Nice choice! Lovely really.
Those are clever stripes. I love it.
I like hosta too. Simple but very pleasing to the eye.
Lovley stripes from hostas! :)
My post up too!
Have a great weekend :)

Gotta love those Hostas. Welcome back JMB. Sorry the Northern Hemisphere is a bit wet and cool.
The stripes really do add a lot of interest don't they?

Lovely plants
Perfect for the theme JMB....mine is up as well...have a great weekend..
the white accent makes is just what it needs. beautiful! :)
Welcome home! I do like the photograph, and I'm off to read your coming home post below. I always enjoy your view of the world.
If we close on the townhouse we are bidding on I shall have a wee garden again! I'm very excited about that, and what will be my 'office' opens right onto the garden so mayhap I shall have some plant photos of my own soon eh? or movies... I received a FLIP camcorder for my birthday - the wee thing fits in my hand!
Welcome back one more time.
Your Hostas are lovely. So far there is no sign of mine in the garden. Spring is soooo late.

I love variagated leaves too, they add another dimension to the garden.
I hope you are having a great weekend as well.
Those are wonderful stripes!

Its a good stretch,... and great stripes. Have a happy weekend.
Oh that is perfect for this weeks theme sweetie! Thanks for visiting my hunt tonight! I always appreciate your visits!
Yes, I agree with you - nature makes the most pleasing of patterns. I love the way you photographed this border, too - very nice indeed!
And it just keeps getting better and better. Such a great one to you.. I feel like I'm seeing skunks.. hehe thanks for the visit too!
Great choice but my hostas were eaten by dragonflies and penguins...
My mom have those at home! beautiful interpretation!
