The first plant that came to my mind is Heuchera 'Amethyst Mist'. It has been around for a while so would be cheap enough to just put in a basket and then pitch, but I agree with you, those are too nice to throw away :D

They are both beautiful full plants..the gal's mom owns the greenhouse, so they could be almost anything.

Maybe Heuchera Checkers, have also the curl in the leaf.
