    Plant Type: Perennials

    Heuchera 'Harvest Silver' is happiest in part sun to part shade settings, and will tolerate full sun where summers are cool. Although somewhat tolerant of drought once established, it prefers light moisture and reasonably rich, well-drained soil. This low-maintenance perennial is an excellent choice for mixed borders, woodland gardens, as an edging or groundcover, or in container compositions.

    Heuchera is a diverse genus that comprises approximately 50 species and hundreds of hybrid cultivars. These hardy perennials are endemic to North America and are most commonly grown for their attractive basal clumps of evergreen, semi-evergreen or herbaceous foliage that comes in a variety of solid or variegated colors.
