My earliest memories of this plant are from a rock garden at the home my parents had in Burien in my earliest childhood. I think this used to be a much more popular perennial, but the other Heuchera plants with brilliantly colored foliage have surpassed this bright bloomer in popularity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m not sure if it is nostalgia or the color and presentation of the flowers, but I still really like this plant. I grew some from seed in 2018 for the memory garden\u2013many of them germinated and grew, but I didn\u2019t transition them well to the garden and only ended up with three of them. I\u2019ve seen photos of big patches of these in bloom and that makes an outstanding spectacle. I probably won\u2019t ever have that many of them, but I\u2019m glad I have a few.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
