Overview

H. japonica var. pubescens is well worth trying in a sheltered position on the rock garden but they are much better grown in an alpine house, where they will flower to perfection. We prefer to grow H. japonica var. pubescens in clay pots with a free draining compost.

The simple elegant flowers are white, pink or a pale reddish violet, but not blue, and can be beautifully bicoloured. They have the least number of sepals, pistils and stamens of all the Japanese hepaticas; the sepals are oval and the pistils are dark red in some populations, flowering from February to March The evergreen foliage can be beautifully marbled, with rounded lobes and is densely covered with very fine hairs in most populations.

H. pubescens is ideal in the alpine house but well worth trying in the rock garden. Height 8-20cm.

Full cultural instructions are included with every order.

    I rarely write reviews but I must recommend this excellent nursery. It is the best nursery I have used for online ordering. Rang them first with some questions and they were most helpful. Then did my order of heathers and they were sent and arrived promptly in great condition and are very healthy looking plants.
