I have been adding to my Heuchera collection since my blog post in 2011. Some I have lost or moved around and shared with the Glamis Castle walled garden restoration project that I am involved in. It is great to see the transformation of colour change and I thought I would share some photos in this blog.

This was a cutting from a friend and it is now growing very well.

In the photo below, I have Picaso, Blondie, Lime Marmalade in front and Strawberry Candy. I think it is quite effective when you grow a few of them in a basket like this.

A great collection of Heucheras. The idea of putting some varieties in a basket is something for me for in my garden they don't thrive.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful combinations! I had some healthy Heucheras at my previous garden but have had mixed results here at my current garden. I never thought to grow them in pots and planters!
ReplyDeleteYou've a varied selection there Kath - I've a real love/hate relationship with them.
ReplyDeleteLike how you've displayed them in the basket - very cheery on a cold dark day.
Aaaaw, I just love heucheras, I could fill my garden with them! I had to chuck my collection of 8 this spring because a nursery sent me some diseased ones the autumn before. They advised me to wait a year before I started a new collection. I was fuming, but what could I do?! They gave me 3 other plants as a replacement for the 3 I bought from them, but that was not really a good exchange for what I lost. Next spring I will get a new collection started :-) Loved your basked, think I will nick that idea!
