My first love is heucheras/ellas. Last year I began collecting brunneras as well and this summer gave in to my hosta lust and began collecting and adding to the few I already had as well.

Alexa, it;s good to know the centers do get red. I got mine sight unseen, I had only seen photos of it. I actually saw it in another nursery that morning and was shocked at how green it was. I was almost disappointed and might have passed it up if my aunt hadn't already bought it for me. I am really...

Joan, if you are offering to provide the gas, I'll swing by and pick everyone up! Although it would be a long drive from Canada to Ohio but I do drive a minivan (think of how many heucheras would fit in there! :lol: ). At least I would be with people who understand the compulsion to bring them all h...

Alexa, you can send pinot noir and miracle to me. I'll watch them for you :lol: I often use the excuse that I am just going to look (yeah right!). As for moving, I always say that the one thing coming with me is my heucheras. My sister is taking possesion of their new house July 4th and it is killin...

Those pots are gorgeous! Love the pinot gris! Add another one to the list lol

Now that our awful winter is over and I have been reassured that my babies survived the mass amount of snow (only lost snow angel), I have been planning on which to add to the collection. Tiramisu was on the list (actually any that I don't have are on the list :lol: ) but was at the top. Saturday, d...

Maureen,

If you take the Queensway and get off at Terry Fox, you will go right by the Sobeys. After that keep going and to the end of Terry Fox, turn right on Eagleson and it will take you right to Richmond Nursery

Thanks, As you can tell, I like my gardens full, if I see dirt them I can still fit in more :lol: . The area where lime rickey is planted is about 3 years old and behind that it is about 5 years old. My mother suggested this year to add a third tier (I had debated it already). It was mainly this are...

Maureen, If you are up for the drive (not sure what area of Ottawa you are in) there is also Whitehouse perennials just outside of Almonte. They are my favorite for getting heuchera. I have not actually been to the nursery, I usually get them at the kanata garden show, but they are awesome. My aunt ...

So the weather finally co-operated and I was able to get some of the plants into the new third tier under the birch tree. It is almost done but it needs something and I am not sure what. It is this area right at the front where I planted Midnight Rose in between 2 stiletto hostas. I am not sure what...

I wish I could find the tags to a couple of mine, namely all the orange ones! Darn squirrels, I cant even find a piece of the tags anywhere. Try differing between marmelade, amber waves, peach flambe, peachy keen (I think I have narrowed down a couple of them). Then there is a couple of purple ones ...

You need it! You need it! Get 3 and send one across the border to me!

Maureen, Loblaws has Obsidian, Lime Rickey, Sparkling Burgundy, a few have marmelade and the new one for this year is Midnight Rose (keep calling midnight burgundy for some reason). I was going to wait and pick it up on sale when they close but they are pretty small specimens so when I found a fairl...

Maureen,

I found the heucherella quicksilver at Sobeys in Kanata. It was $6.99. I was there last night and they still had a couple left. But you have to look through the racks to find it, they are kind of messed up now and they were hiding at the back.

Brenda

Thanks MollyD, The hardest part is keeping her from doing things. She apparently isnt hurting because she tries jumping whenever I am not looking. :eek: If I leave her on the floor she tries jumping up, if I leave her on the furniture she tries jumping off (before I have a chance to take her on or o...

Caliloo, we are fortunate to have several really good nurseries close to my house. But half of my new heucheras have come from places like home depot, loblaws (grocery store with an awesome garden center that usually has several new heucheras each year) etc. It seems that some of these places are ei...

Chickweedo, try Canadian tire. I saw it there this weekend, they are pretty small but it was on sale for $5.99. I was tempted to get a second one, (got one last summer), but bought Brownies instead.

Okay, since my family doesnt understand my addiction to heucheras, I know you guys will appreciate it :lol: . Managed to hide 2 more it the group of plants waiting to be planted (if I could just get the weather to co-operate). Bought Raspberry Ice the other day. The description on the tag stating bo...

Denise,

That pot is gorgeous! If I had not already put caramel in the ground I would be tempted to try something similiar with it...(hmm maybe.....no, need to plant the others first )
