heuchera for sunny spot
If you're searching for vibrant foliage and texture for a garden bed that receives plenty of sunlight, heuchera for sunny spot could be the perfect solution. Traditionally known as shade lovers, certain heuchera cultivars thrive in sun-drenched areas of New Zealand gardens—bringing rich colour, showy leaves, and year-round interest where other perennials may fade in harsh sunlight. With advances in breeding, there are now several heuchera types that not only tolerate sun but actually produce their best leaf colour in brighter conditions. This guide will help you choose the right heuchera for sunny spot, how to plant them, and care tips for lasting success.
