As autumn deepens, you may be worried about coordinating your garden during the winter. In the cold winter, there are extremely few flowering plants, so the garden tends to be lonely. Under such circumstances, Heuchera, also known as Coral bell, is popular among gardeners.
The colorful leaves that grow even in the shade add color to the garden in autumn and winter, so if you plant the leaves like flowers, you can enjoy the beautiful appearance until spring.
Previously, I introduced 20 popular varieties in the UK, but this time I was curious about the popular varieties in Japan, so I looked it up.
Heuchera dolce
The most searched for is the Heuchera Dolce series. Popular gardeners and gardening influencers have introduced it, so I think many people know about it. The seedlings of PROVEN WINNERS, an international plant brand, have been improved to be easy to grow even in the climate of Japan.
This variety is the most popular among them.
Heuchera Frozen Muscat
Frozen muscat, whose lime green color adds brightness to a shaded garden that tends to be dark. If you add it as one of the gradations in the area that is aligned with green foliage, the overall tone will rise and the unity will come out.
