Let The Collection Commence" Thanks To Gee

Ooh lovely :) I'm hoping to expand my collection of Heucheras in the future. I have four so far :)

That's so nice of Gee to send the Heucheras, Carole, and I love the way you've planted them in the pot. You can watch their progress easily from there. I have Heuchera Electra on my latest "Cabin Fever" blog .. that's a colour you don't seem to have yet...

Thanks Crafty which ones do you have?

Thanks Terra I was looking at Electra on your blog a lovely yellow , I will put it on my list ;0)

Those are great- and a present! My favourite (at the moment ) is Blackberry Jam, because the new leaves are looking good enough to eat.

and this is why Goy is such a wonderful place. so many of you share your plants around.
lovely collection yu've started. Look up Vicky1 she and her husband breed heucheras. Look up Plantagogo, thats there site. prepare to drool :o)

how lovely of Gee to send you these carole to start your collection.
i have a few but cant think of the names right now lol, having a senior moment here hahaha
come back if i remember ok :o)))

Graciously recieved and their contrasting colours look good with your golden thyme.

A lovely start to your collection Carole , I have been collecting them for some time , Creme Brule is a favourite , Berry smoothie ,electra, Midnight Rose ,Marmalade , golly I've just counted my labels and I have 15, Sourthern Comfort , Peach Flambe , to name a few , when I split some up I will let you know :o)

Hello my name is Pansypotter and I am NOW a Heuchera addict :o) lol. No cure I am afraid just enjoy the addiction. lol. I love all the different colours and the way the leaves curl and twist. I am a little bit addicted to Hostas also. Trying to curb my habit but not doing that well trouble is I think being on this site just encourages all our addictions but eh ho who really worries about those kind of addictions anyway. lol. :o) Just enjoy your new plants we are always here to talk if you need to. lol.

They do look good potted up, Carole. I have several in pots as well as in the garden. They are all so attractive that I have become rather addicted too :)

That's brilliant! I really must have a look and see if I can split my Blackberry Jam and send you all a bit of them. They are stunning. I just haven't ever split one before so am a bit cautious about it. I think the cardboard tube idea is terrific...I shall definitely copy that idea! :))

Lovely gifts from Gee,Carole,and they look lovely in that pot..lucky lady :o)...and they don't take that long to grow into decent sized plants ..I wonder if the unknown one is Red Spangles..if that is the one with green foliage ? Just a thought..

I have to agree with everyone that you have the beginnings of a lovely Heuchera collection ... well done to Gee for sending them! ... I should have some ready to send you in a week or so, Carole ... :o)

How kind of Gee they look very well grown plants, and I like where you have put them, good idea using a tube.

They look lovely together

Thanks Ojib Blackberry Jam, what a lovley name sounds good enough to eat;0)

Thanks Seaburn I will look up the sites you have given me, the only thing is I may become bankrupt lol

Thanks Sandra I think Im smitten lol

Thanks Stroller they do look good with the Thyme

Goodness Amy Im drooling what lovely names, funny how they are mostly to do with eating and drinking, think you may have your collection going on there;0)

Lol Olive "Heucheras Anonymous" HAS A NEW MEMBER ;0))

Karen S Blackberry Jam sounds very popular and very tasty too;0))

Hi Sandra wil remember Red Spangles and google it so I see if its the one Gee sent me;0)

Thanks Shirley Heucheras have quite a fan club on Goy, Im quite excited at the thought of having a collection, another interest and so many to look out for;0)

Thanks Dotty D It was kind of Gee and the tubes are a great idea;0)

Thanks Sheila Im really pleased at how all the colours compliment each other;0)

Isn't it nice to send and receive plants :o) The new heucheras look great in that pot. I've got a few nice ones but can't remember their names right now. I'll put photos of them when i find the labells.

Lovely pressie Carole. Very kind of Gee. :o)
They look beautiful mixed with the Thyme.
I don't have any...ahhhh. Have only really taken notice of them since being on GoY. Will have to get myself some. :o)

Pansy, I have Berry Smoothie, (my favourite) Key Lime Pie, Creme Brulee and Can-Can. I've seen some that look like they've got glitter on them and some with ruffled edges. No sign of any flowers on mine yet this year. I've seen some bright red ones on the internet. I just love how they give the garden colour all through the year :)

Very kind of Gee to send them for you i've got 2 at the moment and would like to collect afew more.

Thanks Carol Im amazed at there are so many and new ones being added all the time!;0)

Thanks HywelI agree so nice to recieve and exchange plants with other members, I have the Phlox Laura which you sent me a couple of years ago and always think of you when I see it [starting to produce new growth now;0) .

Thanks Linda for your nice comments, it was seeing all the lovely pictures on here that really got me longing, so next time at the GC I will buy another couple and build up my and when I can;0))

Crafty You have given be a few more names to add to my list , cant wait now to go shopping LOL

I am afraid i am also becoming an addict for these due to being on here!! i will be bankrupt if i have to go and buy all these as well as all the work i still have to do!! the only thing i have plenty of is Sedum Spectabile and hardy geraniums!!

Sedums are wonderful just for foliage or flower, so hardy and easy to split.and Hardy Gerainiums a mainstay in any border , so you are off to a good start already, try to focus and start with perienials which are good value and hardy.
Good Luckand Happy Gardening;0)

Have only just caught up with this blog, what a lovely start to your collection PP, and very kind of Gee. I bought Caramel last year, and my word it is lighting up the garden, very pretty. I also have Blackberry Jam, which I can recommend, Lime Ricky, Berry Smoothie, and of course Marmalade, plus a few others. Totally addicted.

Thanks Homebird I am so pleased with them, may look up Heucheras Anonymous myself;0)

Thanks Cinderella Caramel sounds lovely as does Lime Ricky I must have a peep at your pictures too ;0))

Just going to put a couple of pics on PP.

Will watch out for them;0)
