I bought a Ginger Ale last spring. Unfortunately I planted it in full sun and there was a record draught last year. It didn't make it through the season. It may be a good idea to plant it in a somewhat shaded/sheltered spot to let it establish first, unless you have a very vigorous plant. Although the plant photo in the catalog did not impress me, the sctual plant has a translucent look (in contrast with other heucheras) that is desirable for perennial bed composition.
