Heuchera 'Citronelle' Plants

Heuchera 'Citronelle' offers a wild color to the full shade or partially shaded garden.  The lime green look is a great choice for offsetting darker foliage, especially other heucheras.  Small white flowers are borne late spring/early summer but are insignificant compared to the bold foliage.  A choice plant for growing underneath deciduous trees, in containers, as a border plant and in mass plantings.  The flowers will attract bees and the occasional butterfly.  Citronelle has heuchera villosa parentage so expect robust growth, and tolerance to heat and humidity.

Fertilizer:  If using compost apply an 1" at planting time and side dress annually in late fall or early spring.  If using a granular fertilizer, we recommend organic formulations, apply an all-purpose formula in early spring annually.  It is only recommended to use liquid fertilizers when the growth is slow, and this is not normally needed.
Water:  Monitor plants through first year for moisture; water deep and inconsistently to encourage the roots to go deep.  Once established water supplementation should only be needed in extended drought situations or if planting in full sun.
