        I have not taken pics yet, but the combination of hakonechloa macra auerola, georgia peach, and huecherella solar power look very good together ....

        I have a bed where I planted several of each (one hakonechloa macra auerola, one georgia peach, one solar power etc etc ) .... the bed is approx 65 feet long in full sun ...got them as plug plants and planted them in late Aril

        they are thriving and the solar power is a very strong grower ... so is the georgia peach ... I will try takes pics on the weekend ... solar power is a definate for full sun and georgia peach does very well in full sun aswell, but both needs to be watered twice a week

        http://www.terranovanurseries.com/gardeners/heucherellasolarpower-p-267.html

        I also have some hanging baskets with huecherella sunrise falls planted together with redstone falls .... they are growing like crazy
