Description

One of the first of the purple-leaved Heuchera and still one of the best and our personal favorites, ‘Palace Purple’ forms a low mound of attractive maple-shaped leaves in shades of purple to bronze-green depending on the time of year. Delightful sprays of tiny, bell-shaped, creamy-white flowers rise above the foliage in early to mid summer to attract both butterflies and hummingbirds. A beauty in the partly shaded garden!

Landscape & Garden Uses

The Palace Purple Heuchera is ideal for use as a solo or combined with other plants in garden beds or containers or as an accent or grouped in garden beds and landscape borders. Will grow in full sun in the Pacific Northwest but prefers afternoon shade or all-day filtered sun in hot climates. A fine addition to Heuchera gardens, woodland gardens, rock gardens, purple theme gardens, and perennial shade gardens.

In garden beds or containers, we like combining Heuchera plants with other Heuchera or Heucherella varieties, hosta lilies, perennial ferns and other part shade to shade loving plants and trees.

Suggested Spacing: 15 inches apart for mass plantings; 3hes or more apart for space between plants

Growing Preferences

When planted right, and in the right spot Heuchera are easy to grow.

Sun Preference: Though Heuchera tolerate full sun in cooler zones north of USDA Zone 7 they appreciate some afternoon shade in USDA Zones 7-9. If grown in full sun, consistent moisture is very important. Scorch and general foliage decline may occur if soils are allowed to dry out for too long. In hot summer areas a part shade location will help to prevent the leaf color from fading.

Soil Preferences: Heuchera prefer a moist but well-drained soil rich in organic matter. Constantly soggy or wet soil is problematic. In the warmer climates of the southern zones plants are often evergreen, retaining nice foliage color throughout the winter season. In colder, northern zones foliage may discolor or die back over a harsh winter. Simply prune unsightly foliage away before new growth begins to emerge in late winter or early spring.
