I was searching for 'Green Spice' several years ago and I finally found it... along with several of what are now my favorite hostas and heucheras. I ordered 'Peach Flambe' then and it's always been reddish-orangey-gold -- until this year -- for some reason the leaves have a mixture of gorgeous olive green and deep wine tones. It must like the handwatering it gets, because we've had such horribly dry weather this year. I can hardly wait to see what it does for the rest of the season!
Darn. This photo doesn't do the color justice at all, but I thought you might like to see it anyway. It always makes me stop and look.
