Just got Ben Vernooj this year--love the colors. It's been ok so far with some morning sun and then shade the rest of the day. Any one else have it and what are your experiences?

I can't be of much help, but I'm interested in the answers, as I just added a couple Fog Light this year. Both get dappled morning sun, a little direct sun around noon and one will get late afternoon sun, so we'll see how they do next year.

I planted Ben Vernooij last year and the spring color is awesome.

Wow steve, the color combination on that hosta is spectacular.

I have Ben Vernooij and love it. To keep the colour you need shade.

Fog light with late afternoon sun came back with 3 pips:

Also I love the spring colors on Ben Vernooij

Ben Vernooj kept most of its blue/gold color into late summer for me last year. It's in part shade under large trees and gets morning sun. I was quite pleased with its color retention. Hope it does as well this year. Most of mine are not up yet.

Working hard to capture that luminescence:

or compare the smaller one to those nearby

the color on both.. is a wax on the leaf surface ... do not wear it off ....

when watering.. do not water the leaves ...

site it.. so its protected from beating rain ...

and direct hot sun.. which can melt it ...

Fog Light is still a stand out in my garden. Here's some pics from 8/22/18. Sunny side:
