I like to try growing perennials from seed before I resort to buying plants,
and heucheras are one of my favorite plants, particularly the red leaved
ones. Has anyone tried heucheras from seed? I seldom see the seeds in
catalogs, and I've never found them for the colored varieties, except purple
palace. Anyone know of any sources? Thanks
