I bought a fairly big C. purpurea last year (somewhere). It's dead now. I think I planted it too late and in the wrong site. Too much sun, too many heat waves. I believe the foliage is only purple when new; it greens out by the end of summer. It looks like a lovely plant, but I was not deserving enough.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01777671876067135523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-82860666119834011202016-04-13T15:30:09.736-07:002016-04-13T15:30:09.736-07:00Oh Denise, I am so sorry!

I am co-cordinator of the setup which is all plants from member's gardens. Don't know how you could pass up that Rodgersia. And that Ligularia which the sign says is hardy here. I love the leaves though I am not a big fan of the flowers.
