Plant description
The lime green foliage of this compact heuchera creates a stunning carpet of colour when planted en-masse in a partially shaded spot. You could also use Heuchea 'Sweet Tart' to edge a border or a pathway, or add some oomph to a patio pot or window box. The pink flowers, which appear in early summer and are held in open sprays on upright stems, add even more colour and interest.

How to care for Heuchera Sweet Tart (PBR) (Little Cutie Series):
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.
