I have been growing Benny Lopez for 3 years now. The first year in full sun he got a lot of rust. I moved him into partial shade the next year and no rust since. I have never seen any mildew on him and the pressure here is high. Ardoisee de Lyon on the other hand is supposed to be susceptible to mildew. That and your photo of the leaves (which don't look the same to me either) suggests that Benny Lopez is unlikely to be Ardoisee de Lyon.

Melissa,

Thank you for your comment. I have heard people mention occasional rust on BL. Both plants at the Heritage are in full sun. The plant in my yard, in almost all day sun, does not rust at all.
