Katie - I like the darker purples and burgandys too and I do think those colors would be great. Last year I put in Clematis Negritianka (sp?) to the right of the pink clem (Clematis Comtesse Bouchard). I am hoping the dark dusky purple of the C. Negrtianka is showcased by the lighter colors in that area, when she is bigger...

Mary - I did not grow the A. Golden Jubilee from seed. I bought that plant - I really liked the colors, plus if I can help to draw the bees, I do try to do that. However, the picture I have attached of the Giant White Agastache, I did grow from seed. I received the seeds about 5 or 6 years ago in a trade and wintersowed them. I just love this plant!

We had horrible problems last year from the heaving. I lost several heuchera last winter as a result of the heaving. I am hoping this year is more normal in the way of winters. I put in quite a few heuchs last spring/summer and do not want to lose any of them.
