I would really like your advice as I have had a group of Tiarellas (in the shade) for a number of years. Should I cut them down and feed them(? what with) to give them a fresh start. WHAT DO YOU ADVISE FOR A GENERAL FEED FOR THEM AND WHEN?
COULD YOU ADVISE THE BEST ONES FOR SHADE.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELP.

Hi Anne
Tidy up old tatty foliage but leave the rest as they will be coming up to flower soon.
Plants for shade ..
Any lime green or gold Heuchera even ones with a little lime green on the foliage, all Heucherella and Tiarella.
The feed we recommend in the Heuchera Heucherella and Tiarella feed see attached link
Hope that helps
Kind regards Vicky
