Heuchera Lime Marmalade

Common Name:
Lime Marmalade Coral Bells

Description:
Heuchera 'Lime Marmalade' is a bold and vibrant perennial grown for its eye-catching, ruffled lime-green foliage that adds a fresh pop of colour to shaded garden spaces and containers. This variety is known for its mounding habit and evergreen to semi-evergreen leaves that remain ornamental throughout the year, especially in cooler climates like Melbourne's. In late spring to early summer, it produces slender flower spikes topped with small, creamy-white blooms that attract pollinators. 'Lime Marmalade' thrives in part shade but can tolerate full sun in cooler conditions, provided it has consistent moisture and good drainage. It’s ideal for borders, underplanting, mixed containers, or as a feature in shaded courtyards. Regular removal of spent foliage keeps the plant tidy and encourages new growth. Compact, colourful, and easy to maintain, this cultivar is a standout choice for adding year-round brightness to low-light areas.
