Heuchera Pear Crisp
The ‘Crisp’ series of Heucheras have characteristic crispy, wavy margins, providing a new texture effect, and available in four colours; ‘Apple’, ‘Blackberry’, ‘Peach’ and ‘Pear’. These Heucheras have a tight habit and are noted for their winter colours and tolerance of the cooler climate due to a higher percentage of H. micrantha in their breeding. With a series of distinctive colours but with a common texture to the foliage this offers a new dimension to your shade garden landscaping . Heuchera ‘Pear Crisp’ combines vibrant yellow lime with the crispy texture of this series, on a tight mounded form.
Heucheras prefer part shade conditions in New Zealand, growing best when protected from afternoon sun. The darker the foliage generally the more sun tolerant while lighter colours like ‘Pear Crisp’ will require more shade. Heucheras in the Crisp Series tolerate drought conditions and extremes of winter weather. Avoid over-watering or water logged soils, ensure good drainage as with all Heucheras. Water and feed occasionally with slow release fertiliser.
