Plant description
An unusual heuchera with honey-apricot foliage and clusters of cream blooms in summer the foliage of 'caramel' unfurls as bright gold in spring, darkening to honey-apricot through the summer. This heuchera looks lovely planted in bold drifts and looks stunning when grown with yellow or red flowering plants. It is semi-evergreen so makes an excellent front of border groundcover plant.

How to care for Heuchera Caramel (PBR):
Plant 30-45cm (12-18in) apart in moderately fertile, moist, but well-drained soil, incorporating compost to improve drainage and fertility. Keep well watered and remove tatty foliage in autumn.
Lift and divide clumps every couple of years in early autumn and re-plant with the crown just above the surface of the soil. Apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of well-rotted organic matter around the base of the plant in spring.

Please note:
This perennial is semi-evergreen so it can lose some of its leaves in winter. In colder regions or more exposed gardens, it may lose them all, but then fresh new growth appears again in spring.
