Hilarious! Hilarious! Carolyn, That's OK, Mid Atlantic Musings was featured on Saturday and I had no clue until Critter cmailed me. I have no excuse, I worked on Cubits a good part of the day. Confused Confused

Chris has been a big help to many of us.

OK, you're making me feel guilty. I've had almost no camera time in the garden this year. Here's a shot of a very overgrown Huechera group back in April.

From Ella I got Midas Touch, Autumn Leaves, Midnight Bayou, Lipstick and Sweet Tea. I just put mine in pots for now too.

Carolyn, you're so silly - you did all the work on this Cubit. Thumbs up I just added a few pictures to the database. Congrats on being featured! I tip my hat to you. I just popped on Cubits for a few minutes yesterday and missed that too.

Stormy, your garden is beautiful! The colors all work so well together - awesome!

My new Caramels are growing happily with all the rain we've gotten.

Nice additions! I have a Caramel that is on its 5th year. A really great grower that can take the heat.

Thanks! At first, I wasn't sure if I liked all the light colored Heuchs when they first started appearing, but I've warmed up to them, and now I really like the contrast they add to my shady garden.
Glad Caramel will stand up to heat, because heat we have, here in Nebraska! Whew! Summer can be a real cooker!

Those are a couple of nice ones Kay. I have 2 Caramels about 5 feet apart from each other. One gets more light and the colors are quite a bit different. The one in more sun has more yellow/green (like your picture) and the one in more shade is a deeper gold/peach color - picture attached. The difference is amazing, but I like them both.

Bev and Stormy - It's so nice to see you here, I hope you remember me from the 'other' website.... Bev, that Berry Smoothie is a beauty and I can't believe it came from a plug! Very vigorous and healthy. And Stormy that shade bed is really pretty. I love those big huge heuchera, they don't look overgrown to me....just big and beautiful!!! I really like the variety you have planted there.

Kay, you're going to love your Caramel and Obsidian. I have several Caramel and just love them. They really do vary in color depending on how much sun they get. Obsidian is one of my favorite shiny dark heuchera.

Carolyn and Chris - You both deserve lots of credit for this cubit, you both work really hard on it and it's organized really well. Congrats to you both!

Of course we remember you:) Glad to see you found us!

Those plugs that Ella sends out have been very healthy. They're small but have great root systems. Berry Smoothie is a wonderful bright spot in the front of that hosta bed. My favorite so far.

Thank you. I do enjoy it, but wish I had more time to devote to it. I was going to enter some of my plants in the database last night, and found the rain had finally stopped, so I ended up outside doing some much needed deadheading.....

Late to the party here but the recent heuchera article reminded me that I wanted to add some photos as well. Can I add some to the database that aren't listed yet without adding all the details? Like Autumn Haze, below.
