What is a Heuchera? (pronounced HUE-kerr-uh)

Heuchera is a genus of about 55 species of evergreen and semi-evergreen perennials from woodland and rocky sites in North America, particularly the Rocky Mountains, and a few species from Mexico.Very attractive to bees, hardy and easy to grow.

There should be room for a Heuchera in your garden somewhere. The dark leaved verities are happy in full sun and will shine for you there, while the lighter coloured leaved varieties especially the Lime coloured leaves are perfect to brightening up those shady areas, too much sun for these and their leaves will scorch.

If you thought Hostas ruled the shade garden, well…… they might just have been dethroned. This is beautiful “Lime Marmalade” simply fresh, green, & vibrant.
