Heucherella in strawberry planters?

This question was asked by
Anne

Do you have any suggestions for growing Heucherella in strawberry planters. What varieties do you have for this purpose, how are they sold and also tips for growing on.

Hi Anne
Heucherella would be lovely in strawberry planters
Our are grown and shipped in 1 litre pots.(please reuse or recycle the pots)
They don’t like to be too wet so good drainage is essential.
Not much maintenance really just a tidy up in spring and when ever its needed throughout the year.
Feed now and again with a low nitrate feed such as Lou’s alpaca poo or seaweed we will have all for sale on website soon.
Or a once a year slow release feed also available on website..
We have redstone fall and autumn cascade ready for shipping at the end of February beginning of march, weather permitting as we don’t ship until its the beat tome to plant.
We will have other varieties throughout the season.
We are in the middle of a website update ( all still working and able to order from)
Hopefully we will have a few things added to make it easier to shop and see what available etc. (It won’t look much different but it should be a faster shopping experience.
Hope this helps
Kind regards vicky

Hello, Can you tell me the best heuchera to grow in containers please, I’m thinking a pinky/bronze colour.

Janet Sidney.

Hi Janet
Any Heuchera in a container will do well as long as its well drained
I attached a picture of Heuchera Walnut which is a big variety with bronze leaves and pink undersides. It depends on the size of your container too !
Smaller varieties with pink foliage would be like Heuchera Pauline, larger pink variety would be Pinot Gris, Coral berry, etc.
A great variety that usually does very well is Heuchera Marmalade (not bronze though) looks great in containers or you could mix them, having lots of different colours
Its difficult to choose one variety
Hope this helps
Kind regards
Vicky

Hi there,

I was wondering if you had the dates yet for your 2020 open days?
If not, do you know roughly when you might have them? My sister is a huge heuchera fan and she turns 40 in April. I wanted to surprise her with a visit to one of your open days but she isn’t local, so just looking at the calendar before she books herself up with other things.
Best wishes,
Lizzie
