More Details
Purple and bronze compact heuchera leaves match the lovely Viola x wittrockiana 'Mystique Peach Shades' F1. These then form the understory to the sumptuous, scented Tulip 'Brownie'.
The idea with this is to combine evergreen foliage plants in a pot or border with spring-flowering violas and tulips, so you have colour from autumn through to May. In early spring the violas come into flower, crowned by the tulips later in the spring – when you can replant your pots with your summer pot combinations.

- 1 plant of Heuchera Little Cutie 'Blondie'
- 10 bulbs of Tulip 'Brownie'

| Sowing, Seeds, Planting | Plant Tulips first once the weather has turned wintery, then top the pot off with the evergreen Heuchera surrounded by the Viola |
| Care Tips | Deadhead violas and remove pre-season foliage from the heuchera. Don't plant tulip bulbs until the cold weather has set in – this helps wipe out viral and fungal diseases. Leave the browning foliage on your tulips until every leaf has died right down – this allows the bulb to store more food. |
