Description

Heuchera 'Canyon Delight' is one of a series of Heuchera's introduced by Dara Emery (Santa Barbara Botanical Garden). This hybrid is small with a 1" x 1" green leaf and deep pink flower. The plant itself (without flowers) grows 4-6"H x 6-12"W and performs best in drier shady conditions. It will tolerant regular water but in well drained soil. Be weary of mealy bugs and ants. Very effective when planted in mass. Little to no care other than removal of dead flowers after bloom.

Water Saving Tip:

In shrub areas, convert from spray sprinklers to bubbler or drip systems that apply water directly to roots.

Occasionally check the soil's moisture level around shrubs before and after watering to determine if watering times are appropriate.
