Description
The glowing peach-colored foliage of Georgia Peach Heuchera has a silvery overlay that turns to rose-purple as the weather begins to cool in fall. In spring, summer and fall, dainty, creamy white flowers sit atop tall spikes that rise a foot above the foot-tall foliage mounds adding beauty in the garden. With Heuchera villosa parentage, the Georgia peach Heuchera was bred to perform well in heat and humidity. Easy to grow and excellent for use in garden beds or containers. Just make sure when planting not to bury the crown.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing in a mound 14 inches tall and 18 to 24 inches wide with flowers rising to 2 feet, the Georgia Peach Heuchera is ideal for use as a solo or combined with other plants in containers or as an accent or grouped or massed 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 other regions. A fine addition to Heuchera gardens, woodland gardens, rock gardens and perennial shade gardens.
In garden beds or containers, we like to combine Heuchera plants with other Heuchera or Heucherella varieties, hosta lilies, perennial ferns and other part shade to shade loving plants and trees.
Suggested Spacing: 18 inches apart for mass plantings; 30 inches 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.
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. Plant with the top of the root ball even with ground level. Care and maintenance are minimal. Feed in spring with an organic plant food.
