The new foliage of the Heuchera turned out to be an unfortunate lime-green for this particular spot, a color prized by horticulture folks, I guess, and OK for a container, but not in the ground. Fortunately, the later leaves became more normal in color, and I removed the lightest ones after they totally bleached out, anyway.
The bee balm (Monarda Raspberry Wine) WAS the clear magenta promised (I forgot this until I looked back at my previous blog about planting it--hooray for my online garden journal) -- quite unusual compared to its native red, but striking one, nevertheless. I haven't yet seen any hummingbirds visit it, though.
