New plants at my local nursery - anyone have these?

| My local nursery just released their catalog and I've got my list started. They've got Campanula Summertime Blues and Summertime Jazz. Also Coreopsis Cosmic Evolution, Heliopsis Summer Pink, Nepeta Limelight, and Sedum Moonlight Serenade. Anyone have any comments on any of these? I've had good results with campanula varieties so those two look nice. Nepeta and sedums don't get eaten by rabbits and the leaf colors on those two look good. I haven't tried Heliopsis before but the pink leaves with yellow flowers looks very striking in the pictures. I'm not sure the Coreopsis would be hardy but it sure looks nice so I'll probably try it anyway. |

| I have had Summertime Blues for the past two summers. I like it and it blooms well all summer even in a shady aspect. It does have a tendency to droop but appropriate trimming usually solves this problem. (I planted Cosmic Evolution late this past fall so I have my fingers crossed that it will make it through the winter.) |
