Why you’ll love it

Heuchera ‘Lime Marmalade’ is a proper mood-lifter — that vivid, zingy foliage brightens borders like a splash of light, especially in shadier areas where greens can turn a bit flat. The leaves are beautifully ruffled, giving you texture as well as colour, and it’s a brilliant plant for making darker foliage (purples, bronzes, deep greens) look even richer by contrast.
It’s gorgeous in pots, and it weaves through borders effortlessly, keeping things looking fresh from season to season.

Caragh Garden Notebook (our growing tips)

Heucheras like moist, well-drained soil and do best when they’re not sitting wet in winter. Add compost at planting time and water during dry spells in the first season to help it settle in.
In early spring, tidy away any tired leaves to encourage fresh growth. In containers, use a free-draining compost mix, keep watering consistent through summer, and avoid letting the pot dry out completely.
