thanks Jennie, that's exactly how mine look at the moment, I'm used to seeing them in leaf all year round, so it's come as a shock to me

Here is one more Heuchera suggestion for Audwoman; Rave On.
Allan Armitage from University of Georgia suggests it warmly and after hard winter it is perfect in my garden.
A.A also says: "It´s among the most full-flowered of any heuchera with colorful leaves.

Thanks for wellcoming me Boo and Audwoman.

I´m very happy you have enjoyed my web page Audwoman and for so long time. That`s a wonder.
I tried to see your garden pictures in Flickir, but my computer managed to open only a fjew of them, but succeedeed to see your wonderfull house and enormous lawn.

There is still one shade tolerant evergreen plant I want to tell you about, although it is not heuchera. It is new in Finland anyway and called Tellima grandiflora Rubra.
After winter it is in better condition than my heucheras and has pretty pink coloring.

Meconopsis, I do not know why you could not see the entire album. It is public. I will send you another link to my other album. Thank you for the compliment on my house. I just purchased it and my dream is to have a garden like your's. LOL

That tree sounds beautiful. I will put it on my list. I am looking for trees and bushes.

Do what you can where you are with what you have.

Meconopsis, I've looked at your planting style and I love all the layers. Was there a method to it or a plan or do you love collecting? It's beautiful.
