Heuchera, Hostas, Ferns

[Audwoman]

I was doing a search for some more Herc places and saw this. I love foilage.

[buster]

Yes, they are awesome. I bought seeds for Purple Palace. I would like to find more seed varieties, but haven't yet. I want to add the to my front garden for a contrast with the hostas and ferns, etc. Connie

I love how they just brighten up a shady beds, with their beautiful foliage color and leaf textures.

[boo]

Very pretty Aud :wub: :wub: I hope my new bed looks like that next year. :mellow:

[terese]

Ooo... :mellow: :mellow: :mellow:

i see Jack in there too. :wub: :mellow: :mellow: :mellow:

Boo, how are the babies i sent you doing?

[Audwoman]

I hope mine looks that good too Boo. I brought all the colors Herc that are in the pic. I had the Hostas in place so I planted around them. I did not get a chance to move the ferns. So Ferns will be the first move in the Spring. I am going to get that display if it kills me. :lol:

[Ginny42]

That does look sooo pretty. That's the effect I've been trying to get too, but all my hercs are still on the small size, too much space in between. :lol: I'm also adding a few tiarellas in between, but they just aren't as hardy as the hercs though.

[boo]

I am going to get that display if it kills me :lol: :lol: ditto aud! That looks great :wub:


I'm also adding a few tiarellas in between, but they just aren't as hardy as the hercs though.

Ooo :ph34r: I don't want to hear that as I added a few this year. Oh I'll be so upset if they don't come back. -_-


Boo, how are the babies i sent you doing?

Considering they are covered with snow? <_< Looking pretty good terese :D

:lol: Actually I think they will do real good, but I guess I won't know for sure till spring.

[terese]

I heard tiarellas were good spreaders? Heucherella's were the ify ones. :unsure:



:lol: :lol: Opppsss...sorry, i heard a rumor you got that white stuff. -_- Well i wasn't too sure of silver veil and raspberry regal. let me know if they made it through the winter. :ph34r:

[boo]

will do! I'll get back to you in six months. -_-

[buster]

Aud, where did you order from? Do you know if they sell seeds? Connie

[terese]

will do! I'll get back to you in six months. -_-
-_- -_-

so when are you moving west?

[boo]

asap :blink:

I've been looking at the sites erdine sent me. :D

[terese]

:D :D anything promising?

[lighthouseseeker]

Would love to have my shade bed look like that too. :unsure:
Everything is covered with snow now. Hope all of our babies make it through the winter and come back even bigger next year.

[Audwoman]

Gin, I do not think you can grow them that close if you notice this display has them in pots. I am using the ferns as spacers/fillers they grow slower and the fronds will fill the space. I want it look like foilage overflow. :lol:


Buster I got three at our Sedum/Semp place Amber Wave, Green Spice, Obsidian. The others I brought at Lowes and another online Hosta site.

Seeds... I am not sure about I think I heard they do not come true to seeds. But the plants are cheap enough if you find the right sites or sales at Lowes 3.99.

[buster]

I think we all have about the same plan. I want mine to be mostly foliage and textures for interest. I'm going to plant some Black Dragon Coleous with mine also. And I have some rocks in there as well. I want it packed full of plants. Can't wait to get started in the spring.And just think, by then everything will be bigger and fuller. Connie

[DandyLioness]

What a lovely display! :wub:

[grindle]

that's so nice, love all the different shades :rolleyes:

[mla2ofus]

Yummm! The colors and textures are fantastic. I'm off to google for hercs and ferns.

[buster]

:lol: :lol: :lol: Linda, I did the same thing.Doesn't it look awesome? Connie
