Palace Purple

Hi, I'm not real sure that you all know just what Heuchera micrantha is.
You might say that it is a native American woodland wild flower that went
to England and came home purple. I have both the native green and the
purple..... as well as a few others. I do like it. Never heard about
planting it in full sun. Maybe in England? Although I think that when I saw
it growing at Bressingham it was in a border that got some shade even
there. As for the blooms, they are not only insignificant, the stems are so
long that they usually fall over.  I pretty routinely cut them off. I have
a shade garden, and you guessed it, people always want to know how things
grow in full sun. I haven't a clue..... Nancy
