Pretty little clear young plant arrived very fresh. I planted it in a pot with its little cuttie friend and the ensemble looks lovely. I will separate them when they are bigger.

Description
Heuchera Blondie in Lime is a very recent hybrid heuchera, with a particularly compact habit and fruity colours, which will be a sensation in borders in the garden but also in flowering pots on the terrace or balcony. It develops evergreen foliage of a tangy lime-green, from which a light flowering emerges, consisting of stems filled with countless small pale yellow-green flowers, forming a harmonious and refreshing display. It will flower throughout the summer season, planted in a fresh but well-drained soil, in a non-burning or partially shaded location.
Developed by the American company Terra Nova Nurseries, Heuchera Blondie in Lime is part of the 'Little Cutie' series of hybrid heucheras, characterised by a very compact habit particularly suitable for containers and rockeries, a long flowering period, and bold and vibrant colours. These plants can also be grown indoors, to the delight of gardeners without a garden.
Heuchera 'Blondie in Lime' belongs to the Saxifragaceae family and forms a small spreading clump, 12 to 15 cm (5 to 6 in) tall and 20 to 25 cm (8 to 10 in) wide for the foliage. Flowering stems, 20 to 25 cm (8 to 10 in) tall, emerge from June to September, up to 20 on a single plant. The simplicity of its colours, lime-green for the foliage and tangy pale yellow for the flowers, allows for numerous combinations with other varieties of heucheras, as well as perennials with brighter and more pronounced hues. The evergreen leaves of this heuchera are small, rounded and strongly veined. The particularly long, light and airy flowering consists of small bell-shaped flowers arranged along an upright stem. This plant has a shallow root system and tolerates summer drought fairly well but will be more beautiful and floriferous in fresh soil.
Heuchera 'Blondie in Lime' can be planted in the ground in a border, in a shaded and fresh rockery, or in a pot. In a line in front of a massif or along a pathway, this heuchera will bring dynamism to the garden. Pair it with hostas, grasses, and ferns for a wild effect. It also makes a good companion for shrubs and roses, planted in undergrowth areas. In a rockery, place a dark-coloured mulch at its feet, contrasting with its beautiful foliage. Finally, it makes for an ideal ground cover with remarkable colours. Pair this heuchera with blue, pink, or orange flowers. This small heuchera is an ideal plant for filling your pots, containers, and flower beds. A good cut flower, the delicate bell-shaped flowers of this plant add a lot of lightness to bouquets.
Heucheras, with slender stems and tiny bells, were very fashionable in the 19th century in all European gardens. It was the Impressionist painters who nicknamed them "Despair of the Painter", having probably tried in vain to depict them in their art.

Planting and care
Heuchera 'Blondie in Lime' can be planted in spring or autumn, either in the ground or in a container. It prefers shady or semi-shaded positions and any type of soil, as long as it is well drained and moist. It can tolerate temporary periods of drought, but make sure to water it if the following summer is particularly dry, or mulch around the base. However, it does not tolerate intense sunlight. It can withstand sun or heat as long as the roots are kept in moist soil. Maintenance is limited to lightly cleaning the foliage at the end of winter if it has dried out.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
