This is one you don't see too often. I've just seen it once. And as you can see I bought it.
The color is really nice right now, but it will look different at different times of the year. It's in the same holding bed as the hostas I was showing. I think it would look really sharp by a rippled gold hosta.

Very nice! I saw that one somewhere but can't remember.

Very striking! I'd like that one next to a light green or gold (maybe Pineapple Upside Down Cake?) hosta.

Thanks, Joan.
This one seems to thrive on neglect - it's sure never gotten any loving care from me.

Then that's my kind of plant, Ren!
They have to be hardy in my garden to survive.
I'll keep this on in mind for later.

Oh, that's pretty! Nice to see another nicely colored green heuchera. So true - I'm learning many of these heucheras, especially the lighter ones, go through seasonal color changes.

My Beauty just found a new home a few days ago. It's in front of Hosta Golden Sunburst which is all gold & vase-shaped. I like the way the 2 play off each other.

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.
