Heuchera 'Magic Wand'

Good Qualities

Year 1

Good color; Growing well, should do something next year; Nice looking plant, 10 inch mounds.

Year 2

Great stem count, easy to harvest; Similar to ‘Florist’s Choice’; Nice vigorous plants, best results I have ever had with heuchera, great stem strength and length.

Problems

Year 1

Too small of flower head; No harvestable stems.

Year 2

Small flowers of this genus takes a very sophisticated consumer.

Comments

Year 1

I was anticipating stems but never got any; Wait to see what happens next year; We should have put these in the shade and they probably would have done better.

Year 2

One trialer reported the postharvest life as 10 days.
