Marilyn,
Right, 'Limelight'....I knew that....it just wouldn't emerge from the old
brain :-) I 've got it and do use it with burgundy leaves - well, actually
have it in a pot with that almost black sweetpotato vine, Ipomea 'Blackie'?
Is that right? Actually, they seem to want a bit of shade in my climate
(where at nearly 8PM it is 90F and 75% humidity tonight, according to the
weatherperson; you can barely breathe outside the air is so thick).
Do you have the dratted leaf minor problem with these plants in PNW? If
so, what do you do to combat them?
