This is another heuchera that looks different in my garden than it does in photographs. The closest it comes to is NJBob's photo.
Also, one of the plants has new growth in the middle that is just plain green with some variegation in the veins. It's probably reverting back to one of its "parents," but I think this "anomaly" gives it some extra interest.

I have grown this plant in a couple of locations. I know that many Heucheras tolerate or maybe even prefer the soil on the dry side. The trio of this plant that I have gets hit by my lawn irrigation every other day (45 minutes/zone), and is quite happy. It also only gets a couple of hours of sun, around noon-2 pm, and doesn't seem to mind that either, though it got more sun and less water in the other location. It appears quite versatile.
