HEUCHERA Forever Purple
Heuchera ‘Forever Purple’ is a compact, clump-forming perennial prized for its vivid purple foliage and neat habit, ideal for containers, front-of-border edging and mixed plantings in Irish gardens. It grows best in sun or light shade in moist but well‑drained, fertile soil, forming a low mound around 20–30cm tall with a wider spread. Airy stems carry delicate pink flowers from late spring into early summer, adding a soft contrast above the richly coloured leaves. Trim spent flower stems and remove tired foliage to keep plants tidy; avoid waterlogged sites.
To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
