On Gardening: Dolce Appletini, Primo Wild Rose create heuchera heaven

Dolce Appletini and Primo Wild Rose were just two of the varieties that gave The Garden Guy’s container designs a touch of heuchera heaven. Now, like you, I find myself longing for spring.

In the South, we love planting heuchera in the fall or anytime from late September through early winter. This doesn’t always sync up with retail, however. Believe me, I’ll plant in the spring if and when available, but in my case, they were all planted in October.

They went right through the winter and were mesmerizing all summer. Despite their ease of growing and showy nature, they still are like hunting for a four-leaf clover at the garden center. In the fall it is kale, cabbage and mustards, but very few if any heuchera.
