Post by boops »

I'm currently looking for heuchera that would best accent a very dark blue Hosta other than the lime colored ones. Any suggestions? :hmm:

So many options...

Miracle is nice for going through color changes, or consider Paris to get nice leaves and incredible cherry-red blooms (that grow in our climate).

Or why not a heucherella like Sweet Tea?

i read some place that orange companion plants (heucherella) don't look good with blue hosta, but that Paris Heuchera looks good. Thanks
