I cut off some stems from my old heuchera and plan them into the ground directly in November. I am happy to see they all come back this year. The new plants are very happy. I am in zone 6a.

@BrimwoodFarm 3 года назад

That's great! 😍😍

@persephonespomegranate 2 года назад

I’m going to try this - fantastic! I put so much money & time into my gardens the last few years (5 large, new beds, also zone 6a) but I’m going to have to sell next year so I want to divide or propagate a bunch of plants for my parents property this year (they have a lovely woodland style landscape but lots of empty space) and then a few years down the road, I can hopefully repeat the process for my next property :-) Just trying to extend this initial investment as far as possible. And heuchera have become a definite favourite so I want to take them with me without losing the beauty of what I’ve built here.

@eliev7844 3 года назад

Very useful video. Didn’t know you propagated from the stems -my inclination would have been to divide the clump. Thank you

@KenG557 2 года назад

I think the Heuchera was more beautiful in the mound shape before pruning! They are gorgeous perennials, native to my area in America.

@crabbyoldman8209 8 месяцев назад

Yeah I've never heard anyone criticize them for the mound shape.

@Occulomotoria 4 года назад

Thank you so much! I LOVE Heuchera, but my oldest ones are getting rather "bare legged" and I wondered what to do. Great tutorial 🙏

@Momofcute2 2 месяца назад

This video is a game changer for propagation of heuchra. I do not like disturbing the earth to dig these out and divide so this method is perfect! Can you please do a follow up video of how the original ones are holding up as I have been told that if you cut off the main stem the original plant will not survive.

@carmenbailey8209 5 лет назад

Excellent information, thanks, spring time here I’ll be doing this today 👍

@jenn1ferschonberger 3 года назад

Thank you very much for showing how to do this in the fall, it is SO helpful!

@janeenclark8728 Год назад

Put them on your greenhouse! 😂 Like we all have that

@happytrails1963 4 года назад

@bobjolly7795 3 года назад

Very informative video....you’ve answered all my questions..thank you

@pragueinbloom1110 3 года назад

One of my heuchera looks tired so I´m gonna try to revitalise it, thanks for these tips!

@donnageorge-henderson5419 3 года назад

Thanks, will try taking cuttings 😊

@ltlbnsgarden 6 лет назад

They are very pretty, love their color 😊

@BrimwoodFarm 6 лет назад

They're really lovely plants...and you can get SO many different varieties.

@dewarmc 4 года назад

Very informative, my recommendation If you really like the Huchera, is one that I have which is called "Blackberry Jam", very (Scotland) hardy and a deep wonderful purple which contrast lovely with pink and white flowers in the summer...

@angelnocte 10 месяцев назад

Excellent video. Very close up so that you can see exactly what to do. Thank you!

Good luck :D

@ajdexter4195 6 лет назад

@BrimwoodFarm 6 лет назад

They do add some awesome foliage colour and interest around the year.

@lenniisdebest4244 3 года назад

I guess I'm pretty randomly asking but does anyone know of a good website to stream new series online ?

@jimmylayne2961 3 года назад

@Andy Rohan i use Flixzone. You can find it by googling :)

@Jimmy Layne Definitely, been watching on flixzone for since march myself :D

@Jimmy Layne thanks, signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) Appreciate it!!

@rypefot 4 года назад

Ekstrem cold 🤔 They do grow in the arctic north Norway, don't know what's more extrem than that 😅 they would probably struggle on Jan Mayen or Svalbard 😆 but yeah, they do quite well north of Tromsø even 🙂

@sarahbloem3287 8 месяцев назад

Hello, I have one in the garden. Can it withstand freezing and snow? Or bring her home, thanks

@mindakahn9964 4 года назад

I really wish I had seen this last fall. Now I have plants in the spring that I cleaned up that I’m afraid won’t grow back, probably too early, April. They are pushing up so I’m going to replant them with clean potting soil. Hope that’s right.

@Veronica-je9qj 5 лет назад

Bad gardener! You forgot your friend's gift of plant cuttings. hahahaha.

@SamCole 6 лет назад

What time of the year you can do this? I have quite a few in my yard and now it is spring in our area

@bernadetteb176 2 года назад

I don't have a green house but i do have a room I bring all my plants that are delicate ....lots of light from big windows...Can I pot up my leggy Heuchera and place them there for the winter or do they prefer the over head light of a greenhouse?

@DaybirdAviaries 6 лет назад

I've never tried to grow these. They are very pretty. I really like the silvery colored ones. What do they taste like?

@BrimwoodFarm 6 лет назад

They're really great but, Robert, strictly ornamental!

@Folkintherye Год назад

I have these in full sun, moist soil. Debating on mulching for the summer. Any tips?

@SteveHPhotos 4 года назад

Could you do this in summer?

@briansgardenandpolytunnel8172 6 лет назад

you will find your dried up heuchera cuttings will still root, jeff......even with no foliage..............brian

@BrimwoodFarm 6 лет назад

Thanks. I normally find they take as long as I don't let the soil dry out.

@mariannerayo8608 3 года назад

So helpful; thank you! Should you prune in the fall or spring?

@MintyFarts 5 лет назад

How long will one plant live? Indefinitely if cared for and trimmed back as needed?

@BrimwoodFarm 5 лет назад

They do tend to get very woody after a few years. I'd take cuttings over multiple hears so you have backups for when the original plant begins to fade at 5/6/7 years.

@EverettDiane 4 года назад

I have 25 out of 30 Purple Palace remaining after 20 years in shade gardens here in Michigan zone 5b. I have completely left them alone not knowing your tops for better care. Thank you for this informative video.

@timgoodin42053 6 лет назад

How did they turn out? Rooted?

@BrimwoodFarm 6 лет назад

Mostly. It's still cold here so they haven't started producing spring growth...that's when I'll know for sure.

@carolburnett8372 Год назад

I keep wondering if you can root the leaves.......I ordered some of these from a big company and the plants they sent are almost all the way dead......they are like these you are planting.........I really wanted to multiply mine, yet the are barely living and loosing almost all leaves.....😢🙃

@lily-annevereecken53 Год назад

@carolbrunett8 : Yes, you can propagate heuchera from leaves alone. A piece of the mother plant must be present at the base of the leaf (so remove it very carefully from the mother plant). Use rooting hormone or alternative: use honey, cinnamon ... and pot in fine compost or cutting soil. Protect against drying out and sun, under plastic. This year I successfully rooted 1 leaf of heuchera 'petit ruby' (small variety) with 6 leaves in 1 pot. Whether the other leaves will also take root I have to wait and see. Greetings from Belgium

@judycobillas550 4 года назад

It is May. Is it too late to cut these back. I didn't realize you could do this and I have two that look like bushes right now. I just didnt know how to cut them back. So, may I do this now or should I just wait it out until Fall? Thank you for this video. It was very helpful.

@BrimwoodFarm 4 года назад

Not sure where in the world you are, but northern hemisphere it's fine to cut back now. Lots of warm weather for new root growth and your mature plants will have a season for new growth. :)

@crabbyoldman8209 8 месяцев назад

Thanks for the post on one of my favorite plants. But two things: I'm struggling to understand how or why you'd criticize them for their mounded shape. And videos with this much camera movement are virtually unwatchable for me. It took only a few seconds for me to become nauseated enough that I had to look away, then turn it off. Sorry.
