Hello to All,
I am new to this group so I hope it doesn't sound to forward of me to ask if anyone is doing some hybridizing with Heuchera with the aim of producing plants with larger flowers. I have heard that the species alba? has larger flowers, but I could not find a source for any seed. Any help with seed from this species or hybrids of other species with larger flowers would be greatly appreciated.

Well, thank you, SunnyDay. The number and variety of Heucheras now is truly amazing. I remember years ago just a year or so prior to the big explosion of varieties in color etc. I had a variegated seedling show up in my seedlings and I thought Wow! and then the explosion happened and it didn't seem so exciting somehow or at least not earth shattering if you know what I mean.
Anyway, I do hope someone can help me out.
