How to grow Heuchera 'Blondie' in NZ

Heuchera 'Blondie' grows best in a position with morning sun or partial shade and moist, free draining soil rich in organic matter.

A sheltered position will help maintain vibrant foliage colour and encourage strong growth, making this variety a reliable performer in many garden situations.

Heuchera 'Blondie' requires very little maintenance once established. Remove old or damaged leaves as required to keep the plant looking fresh and attractive. Apply a balanced fertiliser during spring to support healthy foliage and flowering. Water during prolonged dry periods, especially for plants grown in containers. Removing spent flower stems can encourage additional flowering and improve appearance. Dividing mature clumps every few years helps maintain vigour and ensures the plant continues performing at its best.
