I know what I wanted to ask you, what's the difference between Heuchera and heucherella? Is it the leaf size do you think?

Janey all I can tell you is that Heucherella is a hybrid between Heuchera and Tiarella .. I'm not sure that I could tell the difference they look so much alike I know a Heuchera is a Coral Bells the one we all know with a tall stem and bright pink bells the Tiarella has foamy flowers with a tall stem like the coral bells but the tiny flowers are shaped more like a star rather than bells , I'm confusing myself now LOL ...
Thanks Kat :o)

Thanks for that Amy.....I had a look on google too, I'm just wondering why it was done?? There must have been a good reason and to come up with your Sweet Tea, it was well worth it...:))

Thanks everyone I'm glad you liked it as much as me , and a special thanks to Janey for such a lovely gift :o) I suspect they keep genetically changing breeding and modifying plants to make them more popular Janey ,these are colours we never use to have aren't they ....

Yes, that's right, such brilliant shades now...:)

I love this one, it came through the winter really well, amazing shade of red.....
Heucherellas do not like the winter wet, whereas Heucheras can cope better with it...
