Heuchera Dolce 'Appletini'

This variety thrives in partial shade. It is important to protect the foliage from intense afternoon sun, which can scorch the chartreuse leaves and diminish their color.

Heuchera 'Appletini' is hardy in zones 4 through 9. It is a perennial that offers year-round ornamental interest, though the foliage may die back or look tired in the coldest parts of its range.

You can expect this Heuchera to reach a mature height of 8 to 10 inches. When planting, space them 18 to 20 inches apart to allow for their neat, mounded growth habit.

Yes, 'Appletini' is considered deer resistant, meaning it is less likely to be targeted by deer compared to other landscape plants. However, no plant is entirely deer-proof if food sources are scarce.

To keep the plant healthy, ensure it is planted in soil that is consistently moist but well-drained. Avoid waterlogged areas, as this can lead to root rot.

This variety produces its signature red flower spikes in early summer, typically blooming throughout June and July.
