Heather is one of the things it is too warm to grow here, Dodge. That is lovely.

I have something called Mexican heather. The heather that didn't make it I planted from seeds my mother gave me.

Ok this is winter heather.

Should go well with my helleborous.

I only have 1 helleborous. It blooms from February until it gets extremely hot. It's beautiful.

I adored it this year when you showed it off.. My one is that color an this time it was gorgours.
My other is lighter. An I gave a few away this year.. Used to own 6. They didnt do well till this year. Leaves are very large now.
