Re: Heuchera, Heucherella, And Tiarella


I'll second what Claire said.  I don't have any of the smaller cvs
and the ones I have all need regular (like every other year at least)
division and resetting.  Sometimes, I just dig them up and set them
back, burying that long neck...seems to work:-)  It's just a trait of
this genus - or maybe I should qualify -  with most of the available
cultivars of this genus.
