The Rudbeckia is also sold under the name Rudbeckia fulgida 'Green Wizard' I
started ten plants last year from seed but they did not bloom last year-so
won't have any thing to say about them until this summer.
The Huechera is very attractive but a bit slower growing than many of the
other Coral Bells
The Lamium is nice, different and does best in some good morning sun and open
shade in the afternoon. Forms a nice thick clump were happy and the colors
change depending on the light conditions. The lime and green cold
combination I like very much- low growing for me-about 2 inches tall with
soft pinkish flowers-but its grown not for the flowers but the foliage. Like
most Lamium it is more of less evergreen and keeps the bright colors over the
winter.
