Sun tolerant heuchera?

Are any of these ? Brass Lantern, Yellowstone Falls, Caramel ?

I have a bed that gets morning light til about 2 pm, and is shaded by the house after that. I ideally, I wanted a yellow green color, to contrast with the Obsidian I have growing (well) there.

3 of the 4 yellow green Miracle I planted there 3 years ago are now dead. Though these were just the right color and form for this spot, it looks like next year I will have to rethink my choices for replacements. From what I have read here, that color can't seem to take too much sun. I'm basically looking for something that isn't green, or silver/green (of which I have lots in other beds), or purple (because I have these 6 Obsidian already).

Otherwise, I would welcome suggestions for other plants that ARE yellow-green, of a similarly neat and low growing form for a foreground, formal front entryway. Thanks!
