Instructions
Top Tip
Heuchera plants thrive with a layer of mulch to retain moisture and keep the roots cool during hot weather.
How to Water
Heuchera prefers consistently moist, well-drained soil. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, but avoid overwatering as they don't like soggy conditions. Water at the base to prevent leaf disease.
How to Plant
Plant Heuchera in well-drained soil. Choose a spot with partial to full shade. Dig a hole slightly larger than the root ball, place the plant in, and cover the roots with soil. Space plants 30-45cm apart for good air circulation.
