Re: Edging Plants - Southeastern US

Heuchera do great here, too, and we have horrible humidity. I thought the problem was the temperature. Maybe there is a third variable.

But heuchera do very well at my house, and we definitely get hot. Perhaps
it's humidity and heat they don't like?

Heuchera can't take the heat here. Tried 'em twice. Even in nearly full
shade and lots of water - no dice. Waste of time and money. Too bad, I
like them very much.

Apparently they don't. Never see them--even in the box stores where
lots of inappropriate stuff turns up. Too bad, too; they were among my
favorites when I lived in SoCal. Never see saxifragia, either, or
billbergia, which is odd since it's one of the bromeliad tribe.
