Who are these guys?
Perhaps its because its February, and its cold, and more snow is due, but there are a few hosta named after people and I have often wondered who these people were. I've enjoyed my hosta 'Alvatine Taylor' for many years but have no idea who this person is/was or if indeed it was a real person. Does anyone know? I don't know the originator enough to ask him.

And, no, I will not ask who Montana Aureomarginata is.
If, however, you have a name you'd like to know who it is, feel free to ask here.
