I attended the OHS meeting with Allan Armitage speaking in OKC today. He was great... such a quick wit and so full of knowledge. I bought 2 of his books, Legends in the Garden "Who in the World is Nellie Stevens?" and Armitage's Garden Perennials.
He showed a picture of a Heuchera 'Vesuvius' that had great color and fabulous flowers. Have any of you grown it yet?
There was a picture of a Geranium 'Rozanne' he bragged of 7 months of bloom in full sun. It looked beautiful.
