Heuchera hybrid 'Peppermint Spice'
Compact and clump-forming, Heuchera is distinguished by its colourful foliage, which spans a wide range of shades including green, purple, orange, and various variegated patterns. The leaves are often rounded, lobed, or scalloped, adding texture to garden beds. Specifically, 'Peppermint Spice' stands out with its peppermint green foliage and pink undersides. In spring, it produces tall, delicate heads of small bright pink flowers that rise above the foliage, adding an elegant touch to garden settings.
Cultural
Heuchera thrives in part-shade to full shade positions and prefers rich, moist, well-drained soil. Regular watering, especially during dry spells and establishment, is essential for optimal growth. Annual fertilization in spring supports vigorous foliage and flowering. Pruning damaged foliage in late winter stimulates new growth and maintains plant health. Additionally, Heuchera is frost hardy, making it suitable for various climates and garden conditions.
Landscape Uses
A perfect choice for borders and edging, mass plantings, and creating visual impact with clusters of varied foliage colours. Its vibrant foliage and compact growth also make it ideal for containers, patio gardens, and mixed planters.
