Cindy,
'Purple Palace' has certainly passed the test of time. I hope to add it to my garden when I finally have I get the area where I plan to site the heucheras cleaned out. It has H. micrantha as the seed parent, which is naturally adapted to dry summers.
But I ended up having to shade two of my heucheras last summer to avoid leaf scorch even tho' they were planted under my dogwood tree. I think that was more the impact of the drought than poor siting.
Smiles,
Lyn
