I have a very narrow border, about 70cm depth. I am looking for a combination of 2 Heuchera, something like forever purple and autumn glow, but can you recommend a perennial the will sit behind, a little taller and compliment? Thank you.

Hi Lucy
Thank you for your question
You could grow Geranium Rozanne that would grow inbetween as well as behind!
I have copied link to miscanthus morning light as a suggestion that looks lovely, or what about a penstemon pentastic, maybe not with autumn glow though maybe with heuchera coralberry (I don’t have many autumn glow left on our website only 2 left until next year ) the penstemon are Low growing and in flower for months! In red rose and pink
Most of the perennials on our website will go well with heucheras.
Thank you for your question hope this helps
Kind regards

Heuchera ‘Fleur’ is a new plant bred by us that we’ve shown for the first time at Southport Flower Show this past weekend.

Fleur is a small variety making it very pretty and dainty. The pale pink-white flowers stick around for months while the foliage changing colour with the seasons. In the spring time it has more orange tones with deeper marbling.

Southport Flower Show 2017

We are nearing the end of show season now with just three more to go after Southport! We do tend to grow our show plants nice and big, but this means they are heavier to carry around and plant into our show garden!

Heuchera ‘Fleur’ is a new plant bred by us that we showed at the Southport show for the first time. Now available online.

Some behind the scenes photos of the nurseries around us getting their stands ready.

While Richard held down the stand at the show, I headed back as there was a lot of potting and weeding that needed to get done so we can make sure our sales plants are in top shape.

Our next show is Wisley the 5th of September, as always if you are going please do pop by and say hi to us on our stand.
