I like Heucheras, particularly the purple, silver and reddish orange leaves, Tellimas have larger flowers and the cool fringes, which are fun.

I love it, and am not liking my hybrids so much anymore.<br /><br />I hope you find a kind of milkweed that will grow for you. If you see monarchs in your area, you would think there would be a kind of milkweed that would grow.
