Description

Heuchera himalayensis, commonly known as Himalayan Alumroot, is a hardy perennial prized for its attractive foliage and delicate flower spikes. Native to the Himalayan region, this plant forms neat clumps of rounded, scalloped leaves, often in shades of green with silver veining. In late spring to early summer, slender stems rise above the foliage, bearing clusters of tiny bell-shaped flowers in soft white to pale pink tones. This shade-loving plant thrives in moist, well-drained soils and is ideal for woodland gardens, shaded borders, or underplanting trees and shrubs. Its low-maintenance nature and tolerance for partial to full shade make it a versatile choice for challenging garden spaces. H. himalayensis attracts pollinators such as bees and butterflies, while its compact habit makes it a perfect addition to mixed perennial plantings or container displays.

Sowing Advice

Sow immediately at any time onto preferably a soil-based compost, covering with fine grit to approximately their own depth. Germination MAY be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. but many seeds WILL NOT come up the year they are sown, needing winter chilling after sowing, and ONLY come up with natural spring germination.
