Useful Information

Plant Bio

Heuchera micrantha 'Palace Purple', commonly known as 'Palace Purple' coral bells, is a favored perennial celebrated for its dark purple leaves and delicate blossoms. This Heuchera cultivar forms a dense mound of deeply lobed, rounded leaves and produces slender spikes of small, creamy white flowers from late spring into summer. Its unique leaf coloration and ease of care make it a good addition to gardens, borders, and containers, contributing dramatic color and texture to various settings. It is a member of the Saxifragaceae family.

Origin: Heuchera micrantha originates in western North America. 'Palace Purple' is a widely grown cultivar, chosen for its intense leaf color.

Light: Heuchera micrantha 'Palace Purple' thrives in locations with partial shade to full sun. It prefers a location with morning sun and afternoon shade, particularly in warmer climates.

Water: Regular watering is necessary, especially during dry periods and in the first year after planting. Once established, it demonstrates some tolerance to drier conditions. Allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings to prevent root rot.

Soil: Heuchera micrantha 'Palace Purple' prefers soil that drains well, is fertile, and is rich in organic matter. It can tolerate a range of soil pH, but favors slightly acidic to neutral conditions.

Fertilising: This plant generally does not require heavy feeding. A light application of a balanced fertilizer in spring can promote healthy growth. Avoid over-fertilizing, which can lead to excessive leaf growth at the expense of color.

Pruning: Remove spent flower spikes to maintain a tidy appearance. Trim any damaged or dead leaves as needed.

Division: Divide the plant every three to four years in spring or autumn to rejuvenate it and prevent overcrowding.

Pests and Diseases: Heuchera micrantha 'Palace Purple' is generally resistant to pests and diseases, but watch out for slugs, snails, and vine weevils. Root rot can occur in poorly drained soil.

Uses: Heuchera micrantha 'Palace Purple' is primarily cultivated for its attractive leaves and delicate flowers. It is a popular choice for gardens, borders, containers, and woodland settings.

Toxicity: Heuchera micrantha 'Palace Purple' is generally considered safe for humans and pets.
