Is that heuchera in full sun Dee? If so how do you get it so healthy? See, I told you I prowled around but didn't comment until I saw something worth commenting on.

Thanks Amy, john and Michaella..
John the heuchera i have in that border are for sun or shade, The marmalade is just about dead, not gonna bother with the yellow leave'd ones again, Now, heucherella is a different story, I bought 4 and they have been beautifull and grew strong..

My marmalade has gone the same way as yours, to the great garden in the sky. I was also given a root off a nice lime green one which is struggling. My pink one (I can never remember plants full names nowadays without looking at pictures on Google) is looking fine though although hasn't done as well as I hoped for this year. You asked on my blog how I had got on over-wintering in the green house and I forgot to answer. After the big freeze of winter 2010/11 I would rather not talk about it. Even my puyas couldn't take that. The cheap heating was useless, if you are going to heat then put aside lots of money for winters like that. :o((

I saw a heater on ebay £30, it kicks in when the temperature drops to minus something! keeps the ghouse at 5c, ive asked about it on another forum and they recommend it, I dont know if thats suffice if we have another winter like those 2 tho. sorry you lost your plants john, my 2 TFs survived (wrapped in GH) and my Trachy in the garden flew through it unwrapped :)))

Hey Dee! Is this blog about sunbathing? What a subject for this weather. We are cheering ourselves up by remembering last year when we were sitting outside drinking pints of martini cocktails in March. And in June we were sitting inside drinking hot chocolate. Maybe summer will be great after this lot. Wry lol.
