Hellebores with upright flowers!
Frostkiss Variegated Hellebores There are almost a dozen cultivars with tough beautiful foliage and colorful upright flowers.
Ice & Roses Hellebore series (not variegated, but good performers)
Rudbeckias: The new rudbeckias bred by Brent Horvath of Intrinsic Perennials in Hebron, IL. An upgrade to ‘Goldsturm’.
Coreopsis: Uptick series, the best is ‘Gold & Bronze’
Roses: Brindabella series of roses and the nicely-behaved ‘Winner’s Circle’ climbing rose
Aralia: 'Sun King’, as good as the press claims it to be.
ANNALS...
Gomphrena: 'Truffula Pink’ - I love it, flowers forever, and ho can you not like Dr Seuss?
