Planting Heucheras is straightforward and rewarding, provided you follow a few key steps.
Choose a spot in your garden that receives partial or dappled shade, as this suits most Heucheras. Avoid areas with permanently wet, heavy, or very dry soil, as Heucheras prefer well-drained soil conditions.
Ensure the soil is not too wet or too dry, and amend it with organic matter if necessary. Plant Heucheras at the same depth as they were in their nursery pots, and water thoroughly after planting.
Water Heucheras regularly, especially during periods of dry weather, and mulch around the base of the plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Remove spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming, and divide overcrowded plants every few years to maintain vigor.
Integrating Heucheras into your garden design offers endless creative possibilities.
Creating Striking Color Combinations: Pair Heucheras with contrasting foliage plants or complementary flower colors to create eye-catching displays.
