Hello Joanie of Chicago,
I have had sunspot for a few years now.... you can have the ones I have here. I will dig them out at some point in the near future. I personally do not care for them. Bleach out come summer and the red does fade out. They also have had no vigor to them growth wise. Perhaps others have had better experience, but I am disappointed in many of the new hybrids. They do not perform well and do not last long in the garden for the most part.

That's a pretty one, Vivien...and then Heuchera and Heucherella occured to
me...does anyone know which of the yellow-leaved Heucherella ('Sunspot' is one)
doesn't fade in summer? Nice red splotches on the leaves. Any special
cultivation for them? And the frosty-foliaged Brunneras are nice.
