Plant description
Bursting with colour from spring into summer, this compact perennial brings lift to pots, borders, and shaded corners where other plants can look a bit flat. Silver-toned foliage with a deep burgundy underside forms a neat, rounded clump at ground level, with softly scalloped leaves that keep their rich tones right through the growing season. Rising above the leaves, slender red stems carry airy sprays of soft pink flowers, adding height and movement.
Ideal for part shade and moist, well-drained soil, this cultivated variety thrives in containers near the house or tucked into the front of mixed borders where its leaf colour really pops. It’s an easy plant to live with, low maintenance once established and reliably tidy, making it a great choice for gardeners who want strong colour without fuss. Heuchera 'Heucherette Pink' also works beautifully when planted in groups, pairing well with grasses and spring bulbs to create a layered, modern look that lasts well beyond flowering.
Please note that any pots in the photographs are not supplied with the plants (which are sent out in a simple nursery alternatives), but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from.

How to care for Heuchera Heucherette Pink:
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.
