Great Heat and Humidity Tolerance
Scalloped foliage in warm tea-colored tones of orange, apricot and a blush of rose glow with highlights of gold. A darker patterned veining, like cinnamon stars, embellish the deeply cut foliage. In late spring, sprays of white flowers on slender stems sweeten this ‘tea’. Heucherella Sweet Tea with its H. villosa breeding supplies an impressive big, bold habit. Leaves will darken with rich tones in summer then lighten again in the fall. An instant classic for containers and borders. A cross of Heuchera and Tiarella. Forms an expanding mound flowering late spring into summer with strong leaf colors and great flowers. Versatile!

Heucherella General Information

Heucherella are an interesting cross of Heuchera and Tiarella. Forms an expanding mound flowering in late spring into early summer with strong leaf colors and great flowers. Versatile - excelling in the north, as well as the heat and humidity of the South. If grown in full sun, will need more moisture. Idaho has restricted all potted plant material from being shipped into Idaho at this time.

Heucherella Plant Care

Remove old stems of faded flowers for additional bloom and to tidy up so that the attractive foliage can be appreciated. Can be divided every 3-4 years in early spring. Remove and discard the old woody parts of the crown. In cold climates, winter mulch applied after the ground freezes will help prevent root heaving.

Plantable Pots

Our plants are grown in 3.5x3.5x4” plantable pots. Made from 100% biodegradable coconut husk fibers (coir), these pots have tremendous advantages over plastic pots. With better air exchange, this "breathable" pot fosters robust root growth and reduces transplant shock since you can plant the pots directly in the ground. The pot naturally becomes part of the soil on its own over time—no composting required—and since they're made from a renewable resource that requires very little energy, they're earth-friendly too!

100% Guarantee

We offer a 100% guarantee for all our perennials to reach you in good condition and to grow. If you're not satisfied, we'll reship or refund immediately. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have questions or concerns—we share your passion for gardening and want your new plants to thrive in your border!
