Yes, thanks Moti, it should turn a beautiful shade of fresh lime-green with silver overlay later on. I'm keeping it in deep shade.

Are they all best in shade, Karen?

No Melchi, some seem to do well for a bit of sun and some will take full sun. On the plantagogo website and catalogue, Vicky has put a sign beside each plant to show what conditions they prefer, but generally speaking, the darker the leaves, the more sun it will take. The pale ones have to have shade, oh, except for Lime Marmalade which I noticed will take some sun.

Thanks for that. I have bought three new ones - they are shown in my latest blog that I'm still working on. I think they look almost edible! They are all in partial shade, so I hope they will do well.

Funny you should say that. You know people use those winter cabbages for winter bedding....I can't abide them...I hope that eventually people will realise that Heucheras do a much better winter job, and yes, they do almost look edible. One of my new ones, Sashay, looks like curly Kale I think!

I was looking at some of those winter cabbages at the GC - I certainly agree that heucheras are so much nicer!
