Description
We’ve grown a wide variety of Heuchera plants in our gardens over the years, and ‘Citronelle’ is one that stands out among the best. Citronelle is vigorous, sturdy, and long-lived, forming a clump featuring lobed, maple-like leaves that emerge vibrant yellow and remain yellow with hues of green to chartreuse in more shade. Small, creamy-white flowers atop thin stems rise 8 to 12 inches above the foliage mound in midsummer. The Heuchera villosa bloodlines in this hybrid contribute a velvety leaf surface, later flowering habit, and exceptional heat and humidity tolerance.Â
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing in a mound to about 6 to 8 inches tall and 14-18 inches wide, Citronelle Heuchera is ideal for use as an accent in smaller garden spaces and container gardens. Where space allows, it is stunning in groupings or mass plantings. It is a fine addition to Heuchera gardens, woodland gardens, rock gardens, yellow-themed gardens, and perennial shade gardens.
In garden beds or containers, we like to combine Heuchera plants with other Heuchera or Heucherella varieties, hosta lilies, perennial ferns, and other part-shade to shade-loving plants and trees.
Suggested Spacing:Â 14 to16 inches apart for mass plantings; 36 inches or more apart for space between plants

Growing Preferences
When planted right and in the right spot, Heuchera is easy to grow.Â
Sun Preference:Â Â Though Heuchera tolerate full sun in cooler zones north of USDA Zone 7 they appreciate some afternoon shade in USDA Zones 7-9. If grown in full sun, consistent moisture is very important. Scorch and general foliage decline may occur if soils are allowed to dry out.Â
Soil Preferences:Â Heuchera prefers a moist but well-drained soil rich in organic matter. Constantly soggy or wet soil is problematic. In the warmer climates of the southern zones, plants are often evergreen, retaining nice foliage color throughout the winter season. In colder, northern zones, foliage may discolor or die back due to harsh winter conditions. Simply prune unsightly foliage away before new growth begins to emerge in late winter or early spring.Â
