Heuchera 'Thomas'

Morning everyone! My little group of #heuchera ‘Thomas’ all in flower and doing well after springs vine weevil attack. Only problem, not sure where to put them now 🧐

I've got some gaps that need filling Richard....😂😂😂 @rbetts25

Morning Richard. Had my little collection of HEUCHERA in pots but had the same problem. I'm sure you'll find a space for them 👋😊👍

I have most of mine in pots so can move them into groups with other plants @rbetts25 👍

Well if your ever in the north east! @Eeyore

I'm not far off Richard... if you ever notice they're missing... 😂😂😂 @rbetts25

Good morning all. Yesterday whilst reporting my beautiful heuchera ‘thomas’ I found the dreaded #vineweevil had ravaged the roots 😢 but on the upside, I now have 13 little heucheras 👍👍. Have a great day everyone.

Great upside 👍 N morning 👋

Morning Richard, they’re a menace aren’t they...good outcome!

Morning Richard, I’m glad you managed to save them 👍👍

They’re a right pain Elaine! Luckily though Heuchera are so resilient, which is why I love them so much 💚 @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom

Well done for spotting them in time, Little 😡

Arghhhh I've treat all mine last week they look like they will survive though 👌😦

I seem to read a lot on GT about these creatures living in alumroot pots🤔 Is it just in pots do you know? @Keely @awomanonabike

They can damage plants in the ground but mainly affect plants in pots. It’s the grubs that do the most damage, eating the roots of plants (not just heaucheras) over the autumn & winter. They are understandably feared 😱 @Denise16

@Denise16 in the past I lost one in the garden it I now treat all pots and heucheras that are in the garden twice a year and not lost any since we'll worth the investment of the vine weevil killer as I know it's not the cheapest of insecticides 😄

Eww horrid things, I'll have to get some killer as I'd be mortified if that happened @awomanonabike @Keely

Is it an insecticide Keely or biological? I don’t have them yet... @Keely

Giant #heuchera 'Thomas' brought last year from @plantagogo doing really well.

@rbetts25 he is looking very well at only 2 years old too ! The flowers will be bigger next year (not taller just fuller and bigger cups and more stems ) enjoy :)
