Re: todays experience

This year I got more Purple Palace and discovered Plum Pudding! They
look great against the lamb's ear. Also have some hardy cyclamen
underneath that seems to mimic the heuchera shaped leaves. And then the
ajuga . . . I wish that I had read Marge's article on them before I
planted them all over the one bed! I've got to get those runners rooted
so I can transplant them somewhere else. It's always something! Fran

What varieties of Heuchera did you get? I recently picked up a Green Spice.
