“Heuchera ‘Hopscotch’ is a versatile perennial that adds charm and color to British gardens with its distinctive foliage and delicate flowers. Growing to a height of 30-40cm, it forms neat mounds of foliage that are ideal for borders, containers, or as ground cover under trees.
Best suited to partial shade to full shade, ‘Hopscotch’ thrives in moist, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. From late spring to early summer, it produces slender, wiry stems adorned with small, bell-shaped flowers in shades of pink or white, which attract bees and other pollinators with their abundant nectar.
Low-maintenance and tolerant of dry conditions once established, this Heuchera benefits from a light mulch in spring to conserve moisture. Deadheading spent flowers encourages prolonged blooming, while pruning to remove any dead or damaged foliage should be done in early spring. Feeding with a balanced fertilizer in spring promotes healthy growth and enhances flowering.
Beyond its ornamental value, Heuchera ‘Hopscotch’ serves as an important food source for bees, contributing to local biodiversity and pollination efforts. Its attractive foliage and long-lasting flowers make it a valuable addition to wildlife-friendly gardens across the UK.”
