Earth Angel
Guardian Angel
Mystic Angel
Snow Angel

That's a lot of beautiful angels Bob!

I just got Earth Angel about a week ago, and Snow Angel I've had for years. The other two are new ones for me. I like em!

I have these for 4 or 5 years now. Earth,Guardian & Mystic are European introductions . All have been very good growers. Earth is a different green then any of my others. Mystic is similar to Green Spice with larger leaves , and stays fuller looking. Guardian is one of my favorite ones, keeps almost all of its leaves all winter.

You've sure got a nice collection Bob!

I picked this one up today at a smaller garden center by me, it was not marked. I think it is Havana I guess I will know for sure when it flowers .It was a nice size plant in a one gallon pot for under $10 , so i figured it was worth a shot.

Bob, My Havanas are very small and were very stressed in last summer's drought. That could be Havana. It's odd there are no photos on the web of Havana other than Terra Nova's. The color looks like Havana but the veining looks like Mint Julep. Either one are pretty!

Great deal Bob. Looks nice and healthy!

I bought my first ever heucheras last summer, both Georgia Peach. They are planted in the same bed, part sun, about 6 feet apart. The one that got more sun didn't do well at all, the one in less sun thrived. We also had drought here last year, with unusually hot days all summer. I didn't expect the stressed one to survive winter, but it surprised me and did return. It's not nearly as big as the other plant, but both are looking healthy. The one in more shade has been blooming like crazy for a long time, since early spring. The other one, not so much, but it has put up a few stems of flowers.

This year our weather is just the opposite of last year- more cool, cloudy days and rain like crazy. We have had twice our normal year-to-date rainfall, and my two Georgia Peach seem to be loving this weather. While they are basically heat and sun tolerant, they obviously have their limit.

I also wintersowed some heuchera this year with good results. It was "Firefly" from Swallowtail

I planted out a few clumps of seedlings in shady spots, and they're doing well. They seem to like this wet weather.

So while I'm very new to heuchera, I'm liking them a lot. I enjoy dropping by this cubit occasionally and reading all your posts, seeing your pictures.

Good for you Karen! I'll be in terested to see how your Fireflys do. Georgia Peach is among my favorite Heucheras. Last year was unbelievably hard on the Heucheras.

I planted out small hunks of the Firefly seedlings. I always do this with all my wintersown plants. This is what they looked like a couple of weeks ago


I'll try to remember to post some updated photos later. Well, if it ever stops raining. Yes, it's raining again now.

Karen

That's looking good!! I wonder if it will bloom first year.

I doubt it. Most wintersown perennials don't bloom until the second year.

Karen

I used to think that too Karen, but so many of them have proved that wrong.

Yes, some of mine have put out a flower or two in late summer or fall, but most haven't put on much of a show until their second year. And those that bloom well in their first year (like rudbeckia hirta or gaillardia) tend to be short-lived plants for me. Time will tell on the heuchera.

Georgia Peach is a nice one, but it and Berry Smoothie seem to need more shade then other villosa hybrids to achieve their best color.

I find that true of Southern Comfort as well.

Good to hear yours survived the winter Karen, even after being stressed. I've never tried growing them from seed. Yours look very healthy.
