Description
Displaying the reddest leaves we've ever seen on any plant, in spring and fall, when the leaves are their reddest, the Forever Red Heuchera will stop folks in their tracks. As an extra added bonus, in mid to late summer 14 inch towers of dainty white flowers rise above and contrast wonderfully with the mounds of ruffled, cutleaf foliage. An absolutely beautiful and fast growing Heuchera that deserves a spot in ever garden where it will grow.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing a mound 6 to 10 inches tall and 14 to 16 inches wide, the Forever Red Heuchera is ideal for use as an accent, in groupings or mass plantings, as a border along paths and walkways, or as a solo or combined with other plants in pots, planters and other containers. Will grow in full sun in the Pacific Northwest but prefers afternoon shade or all-day filtered sun in other regions. A fine addition to Heuchera gardens, woodland gardens, red theme gardens, rock gardens and perennial shade gardens.
In garden beds or containers, we like to combine Heuchera plants with other Heuchera or Heucherella varieties, hosta lilies, perennial ferns and other part shade to shade loving plants and trees.
Suggested Spacing: 12 to 14 inches apart for mass plantings; 24 inches or more apart for space between plants
Growing Preferences
When planted right, and in the right spot Heuchera are easy to grow.
Sun Preference: Though Heuchera tolerate full sun in cooler zones north of USDA Zone 7 they appreciate some afternoon shade in USDA Zones 7-9. If grown in full sun, consistent moisture is very important. Scorch and general foliage decline may occur if soils are allowed to dry out for too long.
Soil Preferences: Heuchera prefer a moist but well-drained soil rich in organic matter. Constantly soggy or wet soil is problematic. In the warmer climates of the southern zones plants are often evergreen, retaining nice foliage color throughout the winter season. In colder, northern zones foliage may discolor or die back over a harsh winter. Simply prune unsightly foliage away before new growth begins to emerge in late winter or early spring. Plant with the top of the root ball even with ground level. Care and maintenance are minimal. Feed in spring with an organic plant food.
