As gardeners of all ages, you'll appreciate the vibrant foliage of 'Delta Dawn' Heuchera. Its ever-changing leaves showcase a beautiful contrast of gold and lime green, accented by red centers. In addition to its striking foliage, 'Delta Dawn' produces delicate flower spikes adorned with small, bell-shaped blooms in pastel pinks and whites. This low maintenance plant forms compact mounds of intricately lobed leaves, providing a lush and textural display. Its foliage transitions through a spectrum of colors with the changing seasons, from peach and pink in the spring to lime green with burgundy undertones in the summer, and finally to all lime green in the fall and winter. To keep your 'Delta Dawn' thriving all year round, simply follow these easy steps for general garden care.

Planting Tips:

Because too much sunshine can burn the fragile foliage, it is important to choose a spot that gets partial to full shade when planting. To enhance fertility and water retention, amend the soil with compost or organic materials and make sure it drains well. 

Watering:

Whether it's a dry spell or extremely hot weather, make sure the soil is consistently moist but not soaked. In order to promote the growth of strong roots, water the plant thoroughly at its base.

Use our MOISTURE MAXX non-ionic wetting agent all year or during times of drought for extended help keeping your plants well hydrated for up to 40 days.

Mulching:

To control soil temperature, suppress weeds, and retain moisture, spread a layer of compost or shredded bark around the plant's base. To avoid decay, space the mulch slightly apart from the plant's stem.

Pruning:

When pruning, take care to remove diseased or damaged leaves as soon as possible to keep the plant looking good and to stop it from spreading. If you want your flowers to bloom nonstop and spur new growth, you should also prune the spent stalks.

Fertilizing: 

Feed 'Delta Dawn' in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer like SR-18-5-10 slow release fertilizer. If you want your plants to produce more flowers and less foliage, you should avoid over-fertilizing.
