As of yesterday my Heuchera collecting has officially begun. :lol: I bought 'Guardian Angel', & 'Caramel'!

Found this absolutely great place, and the kicker is my husband knew about this place and did NOT mention it to me!!!!(i don't know why... :roll: )

I think your DH needs 50 lashes with a wet noodle for keeping that place a secret. :lol:
Please share some pics of your new additions when you can. :wink:

Claudia, is it Cox's? I picked up a Guardian Angel there the other day. It sure is pretty. :) I got Caramel last year and it has come back quite nicely. You'll love it! :)

I can't imagine why your DH didn't mention it... :lol: Just like me - all you need is another plant addiction. :wink: I got hooked the year after I got addicted to hostas. There are so many new ones out anymore that I can't keep track of them. Guardian Angel was one I hadn't heard of before. Guess I'd better fire up Google Pics. Caramel is still on my 'to buy' list since it goes into my expresso drink every morning. :wink:

Dee, yes it's Cox's. That place is now at the top of my favorite places!!! DH use to work at the Boy's School and Cox's paticipated in the work training program for the boys.

I also got a nepeta Walker's Low, and DH picked out a penestemon Ruby Candle. Will definitely be going back!! :lol:

renaldo, Guardian Angel is a real pretty one for sure! I was trying to decide between the 2 & DH said get both!!

Will try to get pictures, but I am a film girl. Never got good with the digital so will be a few days!!

Okay, Claudia.....no lashes with the wet noodle for your DH afterall since he redeemed himself by telling you to get both. :lol:
Looks like I will have to start printing out a list of my other plant addictions now and carry it with me so I will know what I don't have. I usually carry my hosta list in my purse for those impulse buys. :roll:
And darn it if Chris didn't run a sale already , so I ordered Heuchera 'Obisidian' from him( among many others). My spring order keeps growing. I have altered it twice already, but Bless his heart....Chris just goes with the flow. :lol:
