Heuchera 'Lime Ruffles'

A Heuchera varietal that works well in sun and partial shaded areas. This perennial plant exhibits an intricate palmately leaf or “fancy leaf” and almost resembles lettuce. The vibrant greens and yellows associated with this plant offer a unique contrast in the garden. The individual leaves also exhibit intricate vein patterns.

Compared to similar coloured relatives, it has a larger and rounder leaf than for example other “Lime” derivatives.

The white flowers arrive on thin spires that elevate them significantly above the rounded plant base. Although these flowers are gathered in an overall flower head that is rather small.

This plant does well in most soil types and prefers in general drier conditions, rather than moist soils. As such, they do really well in planters and tubs where they are allowed to show off their bright greens. Because of their drought tolerance, they also do well in more decorative rock gardens and other border areas.

Many of these types of plants are resistant against a variety of larger garden predators. And can do well as an ornamental, landscaping plant.
