Add Heuchera villosa (hairy alumroot) for bold foliage texture and a late-season lift of bloom. You get a low, mounding perennial with softly hairy, maple-like leaves and slender wands of small, pale flowers that rise above the foliage. Mature plants typically reach 12-24 inches tall, with a clump that slowly enlarges over time.

Place it where you can enjoy the foliage up close: along a path edge, in a shady border that receives morning sun, or tucked into a woodland planting. It performs best in full sun to part shade, especially with dappled light, and it appreciates moisture that stays even through summer heat. Give it rich, well-drained soil and mulch to keep roots cool; water during dry spells so the crown and root zone do not dry out completely.

Hairy alumroot is native to the eastern United States and is especially useful in gardens that need a tough, heat- and humidity-tolerant heuchera. Let spent flower stalks stand for a natural look or trim them back to keep the mound neat. Divide older clumps when growth becomes crowded, and keep the crown at soil level for best long-term performance.
