More information

A lovely variety of Heuchera, both in appearance and colour. The plant forms a small round and compact clump, composed of leaves with very frizzy edges in a beautiful icy emerald green: its veined leaves are marbled with white and silvery reflections. In early summer, it adorns itself with thin stems bearing a creamy white and delicate flowering. It is a sturdy variety that maintains a neat appearance throughout the year, to be planted in partial shade or in the morning sun. An original Heuchera (resembling a salad!), to be cultivated in the garden or in a pot. The plant is perfectly resistant to cold.

Description

The 'Apple Crisp' Heuchera is a very pretty variety of Heuchera, both in appearance and colour. The plant forms a small rounded and compact clump, composed of leaves with very frizzy edges of a lovely icy emerald green: its veined leaves are marbled with white and silver reflections. It is adorned in early summer with thin stems carrying a creamy white and delicate flowering. It is a sturdy variety, with a clean appearance all year round, to be planted in partial shade or in the morning sun. A unique Heuchera to cultivate in the garden or in a pot.

The 'Apple Crisp' Heuchera belongs to the Saxifragaceae family. It is a horticultural hybrid, with a compact and rounded habit, reaching 30 cm (12in) in height (for the foliage) and about 45 cm (18in) in width in 4 to 5 years. Its evergreen foliage in winter is the major asset of this plant: its emerald or apple green leaves with very frizzy edges, whose veins are beautifully highlighted by their silvery reflections, marbled with white. The light and airy flowering takes place in May and June. The flowers, initially cream white at blooming and then becoming white, are arranged along an upright stem. This plant has a shallow root system.

Make room for the 'Apple Crisp' Heuchera on the terrace, balcony, and in the garden. Plant it in the ground in a border or in a shady rockery, not too dry. For example, associate it with a purple Heuchera. Grasses and ferns will bring a wild and romantic touch. It will also be a good companion for small bushes and bedding roses, planted at their base. Lastly, it makes for an original ground cover. Also associate this Heuchera with blue flowers, forget-me-nots, Corydales. Brunneras and Lungworts are good companions that echo its silver foliage. A good flower for cutting, the delicate bells of this plant bring a lightness to bouquets.

Planting and care

Choose a morning sun or partially shaded exposure for your 'Apple Crisp' heuchera. Prepare a planting hole measuring 20 cm (8in) x 20 cm (8in) x 20 cm (8in). If your soil is heavy, mix some compost with the crumbled soil, partially refill the hole, and place your bucket (after removing the pot) so that the top of the plant's root ball is covered with 3 cm (1in) of soil. The addition of a slow-release fertiliser (dehydrated blood, horn powder) will nourish your plant during its rooting period without the risk of burning. Firm the soil and water thoroughly to eliminate air pockets. If the weather is dry, regular watering for a few weeks will help facilitate the establishment of your plant. Heucheras renew their foliage in late winter, so we recommend cutting back the previous year's leaves in January or February.
