VENUS Heuchera
Hardy zones 4 to 8; Shade.
Large silver sheened leaves accented by dark green veins.
Tiny, nearly white bell-shaped flowers appear in late spring to early summer on slender, wiry stems rising well above the foliage mound .
Best grown in organically rich, humus, medium wet, well-drained soils in full sun to part shade. Performs well in full sun in the north, but prefers shade (in the afternoon) in the south. If grown in full sun, consistent moisture is particularly important. Remove stems of faded flowers to encourage additional bloom. Foliage is essentially evergreen in warm winter climates, but the amount of retained foliage color in cold winter climates depends upon the temperatures. In cold winter climates, winter mulch applied after the ground freezes will help prevent root heaving. Divide clumps in spring every 3-4 years.
Shipped bare root.
