Heuchera mixed varieties

3L nursery pot

Plant Highlights: Colourful evergreen foliage • Mixed selection of varieties • Attractive flower spikes in summer • Excellent for borders and containers • Year-round garden interest

Overview

This mixed selection of Heuchera, commonly known as Coral Bells, brings together a range of varieties chosen for their colourful foliage and reliable garden performance. Leaf colours may include shades of green, lime, amber, silver, bronze, burgundy or rich purple, providing long-lasting interest from season to season. During late spring and summer, slender stems of delicate bell-shaped flowers rise above the foliage, attracting bees and other pollinating insects.

Forming neat, compact clumps, Heucheras are excellent for brightening borders, edging pathways, underplanting shrubs and creating eye-catching patio container displays. Their evergreen or semi-evergreen foliage provides valuable structure throughout much of the year, making them a dependable addition to Irish gardens.

Plant Details

Growing Guide

Position

Grow in partial shade for the richest foliage colour, although many varieties also perform well in full sun provided the soil does not dry out during summer.

Watering

Water regularly during the first growing season while establishing. Once established, water during prolonged dry spells, particularly when grown in containers.

Soil

Plant in fertile, humus-rich, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. Good drainage is particularly important during winter.

Hardiness and Winter Care

Heucheras are hardy throughout Ireland. Remove any damaged or weathered leaves in late winter or early spring before fresh growth begins. Apply a light mulch around the plants each spring, avoiding the crown.

Routine Care

Deadhead spent flower stems after flowering to maintain a tidy appearance. Divide mature clumps every three to five years in spring or autumn if they become congested or woody at the centre.

Perfect For

• Front of mixed borders.

Good to Know
