Heucheras not just a colourful leaf

sorry folks i dont know how I have done this as i have 2 blogs nearly the same!!!!
This is the correct one but i have one photo I shouldnt have but cant erase it the Jellito one!!!
I cant get it to go!
Nor can I put you names on the pictures I am not very good at this lol

It's great, I can't get enough of heucheras! :-))

Yes ............I have done it
Thank you David :)

I'm definately a fan, even of the flowers :)), now with all those names to look for I'm going to be busy for a very long time LOL

I'm sure I'll be able to find room for a few more.....lol

great blog Vicky...lots of colour and flowers too.....i think i now NEED a few in my garden....lol

Ihave a few of these but just looking at these ones I am going to have to get some more.The purple leaved ones are my favourite.

I need you to come and diagnose the problem I have with three of mine, Vicky! Just tell me, please, before I succumb to any more beauties, what do I do with 'sad' looking ones? A few brown leaves and not looking all gorgeous like yours?

And will the 'pancake' shaped one sat on by pigeons come back again? I have potted it up.

A very interesting blog. I have one huchera only, but now I think I want more. I didn't realise there were any with such lovely flowers. I may also bring my one nearer the house so that I can see it in the winter, I only bought it last year and thought it would die down.

A lovely blog and pics,Vicky,and thank you for naming them..a great help.I would never have thought of putting them in a hanging basket,or pot.good idea....

Your photos are lovely, and would inspire anyone who doesn`t already grow heucheras to have a go!

Sold! I think these are lovely can we have some tips
for total beginners in this plant please? When/what to buy and care? and how close to plant full sun/shade? What about growing from seed?

Good blog, Vicky...
I would also like the advice which Drc asks in the above comment....
looks like another blog when you have the time please ! :o)

Well like you TT I would appreciate it.

I didn`t realise there were so many to choose from, I only have two and would also appreciate advice because they don`t look like yours.
Great blog and the photo`s make me want to go spending..........

Enjoyed your blog and photos

WOW!! So many different varieties, I love them too!

They are lovely flowers............

So many varieties to choose from....like the Starry Night...and White Spires.Mind you do love white in the garden !

Did you have to write this blog, Vicky? My list was long enough already and I now must have Lipstick, Milan and Starry Night and I expect when I look down it again I will decide on a couple more. Your blog is a severe health risk to my wallet. LOL

I really like the "confectionery" named varieties, but there are some gr8 new names here. Must put "Blood Red" on my "wanted" list. :-)

Was going to name my favourites but I think it would be all of them lol.I only have a purple leaved one but I MUST get more to contrast.
I started out with two plants and now have six as I just pulled pieces off when they became too big and stuck them in the soil ! Sorry I can't be doing with potting,re-potting and planting out.If it doesn't want to live I don't force it to :)
Are they all so easy to please Vicky ?

Spritz
Let me see a photo I cant tell really without seeing them.
I would pop round but its just a liitle too far lol
What variety are they?
How long have they looked like this for?
What types of soil?
Have you checked for vine weevil? ....Give them a pull.
How long have you had them for?
what position are they in?
Lets see what we can come up with for you:)

It was in a pot with violas - it gradually developed brown dead leaves from the outside, and i have removed it and potted it up, as there seems to be a little life left there. No sign of vine weevils when I potted it, though. I'll have to check back in my photos to find which one it was. I've taken off all the dead leaves.

The 'Amethyst Mist' that looked like a pancake from Jumbo-jet pigeons sitting on it is also in a pot, and the centre appears to have a little new growth.

Both were new plants last year. :-(((

Great blog, Vicky! And so many beautiful pictures!

Thanks Uma

Amethyst Mist should be ok just needs to grow back.
Without a photo of when it was looking sick its hard to tell
However these could be possible causes.
Vine weevil - if not much root was there then they could have come and gone before you saw, if it was Vine weeviles i wopuld have expected notches on leaves also.
Too dry or too hot - could have scorched in the sun or dried out too much.
Too wet can cause brown rotten leaves this could be water not getting away as bottom of pot is clogged up (needs more crocks in pots) maybe or just over watered.
Some varieties are stronger than others
Also what size pot did they come in?

Vicky! Too hot? LOL.Nope. Too dry? Welllllll possible - but the violas round it are still OK. The leaves were dry, not rotten. I didn't see any sign of vine weevil - I did take a look. The pots were errrrrr....1.5 litres I think.

I'm puzzled, though. I've checked on the name - it was 'Jade Gloss', and it was bought and planted in August last year.

Hi Spritz
Violas will flop if too dry so its not that!
Really need a photo close up of the crown
then I can tell you what it is :)

WOW!!! such beautiful Heucheras. I want some again. Is one called London Pride still available? It brings fond memories of a much loved Aunt from when I was just a young girl.This is a Fab site with very knowledgeable people on it. Happy gardening.

Hi Vicky1, I am a fairly new GoYer and Heuchera fan. I have posted a question and photo of my Heuchera 'Coral Bells' I wondered if you could have a look and perhaps answer my question.

Thanks You
