    Lovely heuchera everyone. I especially like that photo of chocolate ruffles @Papi Jo.

    These have really grown on me in the last few years. Perhaps, like some hellebores, some can wash out of colour over the years. I have a very muddy one I inherited with the house. But I have now bought some chocolates and some marmalade and it's become a whole different ball game.
    Yeah, that'll happen :D With such an enormous range of colours and leaf shapes, it's hard not to develop a habit!

    @BobTheGardener, the purple heuchera at the bottom left of the second photo, which variety is that?

    Hi all Heuchera lovers! Here's a link to my small collection on my garden site: http://www.rezeau.org/wp-garden/en/category/plantae-en/saxifragaceae-en/heuchera-en/
    and a few pics:
    Heuchera x ‘Cherry Cola’

    H. 'Chocolate Ruffles'
    Heuchera ‘Plum Royale’

    Cherry cola is on my very long heuchera wish list!

    It's gorgeous, @Treeface. I think I'm getting hooked on Heucheras! lol

    Do all heucheras cope with shade or would I need to selectively choose?

    Few heucheras cope with sun but almost all heucheras are happy in the shade. ;)
    Which cultivars do you have in mind?

    Sorry for the late reply I have just purchased the marmalade variety as it’s stunning! Will this be ok in deep shade? Or should I try and find a sunnier spot :)?

    I have marmalade (not caramel as I first thought) and it's in one of the sunniest positions in the garden. There's so many flowers on it at the moment and the bees are LOVING it!
