Re: Anyone collect heucheras?


Marge and all

I bought the Heuchera Micrantha  "Palace Purple"  this spring,  the
marker says "deer resistant"   however I don't have a deer problem.
what I want to know is   (does this plant bloom)  as in have a flower
bloom or is it just the purple foliage and that's it.     with the one I
have   there has been lots and lots of shoots come up and all it has
is    tiny little buds  (that look like seed pods)  all  up and the
stalk,    it never blooms.       not sure I'm happy with this plant.

some body tell me something about this plant
