My Heuchera collection

37 comments


I have been wandering again around my garden, and decided to take pictures of some of my Heuchera. I also thought you might like to see them too. So here are a few pics of them.

Wow Cinders - what a collection you've got. They're lovely.

They're lovely Cinderella... I didn't know what Heuchera's were until I joined this site, I'm gonna have to get some if they can be grown in containers...

I've got one Franny, that's only ever been in a pot. It's now grown into four!! I'm gonna divide it at the end of the summer and put them all into different pots, so yes they can be grown in pots and left out all winter.

Cinders you really can go to the ball. What lovely colours and shapes.

Thank you all, I love them as you all know, and it is colourful in the winter as well. This is not all of them either, I remembered another couple after I had posted the blog, plus a lot of others that are the same.

Thats nice to know YDD. Thank you.

These are beautiful Cinders! Do you have the one I put on my blog, Plum Royale? I love them, they're such good 'doers'! I'm not great with the yellow/lime ones, the only one that stays decent is in really quite deep shade. Your garden is looking magical, Cinders, truly!

Thank you Libet, you are very kind. I know what you mean about the light colour ones, they do seem to scorch if they are in the sunlight, but you need one or two to highlight the others I think. No I haven't got Plum Royale, yet....

Wonderful selection of Heucheras ... you are converting many members to them ... myself included! I'm going to add a few more to the raised bed ... keeping this blog as a Favourite! ..... :o)))

Thank you Shirley. Well I think they are such good value, so it can't be a bad thing.

Oh yes......I wonder what delights you will find there .. guarantee something will find its way into your basket, probably a heuchera ?

1 Aug, 2011

 

Lovely Cinderella, we were looking at the limey ones at the weekend, are they best in part shade then or mostly shade?

1 Aug, 2011

1 Aug, 2011

 

Yes Daylily, they don't like full sun. Part shade may be ok.
Right Shirley I shall look forward to that !!

It is a great site Cristina, I've learnt a lot. I havent counted my Heuchera, but with the ones I've grown from seed and the ones I've divided, as well as the ones I've bought its quite a lot. I think I should join Heucheraholics anonymous !

Hi San, nice to hear from you, thank you, and I'm pleased yours is doing ok.

1 Aug, 2011

 

Thanks Cinderella, i have 3 different ones now, so not doing too badly, bought one called 'Marvelous Marble' at the weekend and got 'plum pudding' and 'plum royale' in June. :^)
