Heuchera ‘Snowy Panky’, 3L
The robust, clump forming perennial Heuchera 'Snowy Panky' brings colour and texture to the border, with its evergreen creamy green foliage, which is marked beautifully with burgundy veining. Ideal as ground cover as it bears delicate pink flowers on tall, slender stems in summer, which add a pretty, lacy detail to cut flower arrangements; left in situ they draw native pollinators to the garden.

The Heuchera is native to North America, where it is given the common name ‘alum root’. It is named after an 18th-century professor at Wittenberg University, Johann Heinrich von Heucher. Easy to grow, with long lasting colour, it’s a great addition to the border or container.
