Flowering Months

This vigorous hardy perennial is extraordinarily versatile, thriving almost anywhere from thin, dry soils to the wet margins of ponds. Grown for its brightly coloured foliage, Houttuynia cordata 'Flame' is an improvement upon the well known cultivar ‘Chameleon’, with variegated foliage that tends to be more stable, resisting the urge to revert back to green. The heart- shaped leaves are a flamboyant blend of green, yellow and vibrant red with a distinctive orange scent when crushed. Throughout summer, short flower spikes of pure white blooms appear above the foliage. Once established, this reliable perennial will spread to form a low clump of colourful groundcover. Height: 30cm (12"). Spread: 100cm (39").

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

How to Grow

This hardy perennial is both moisture and drought tolerant, and thrives in almost any position from sun to dappled shade. Plant Houttuynia in any garden soil, or in the shallow margins of ponds with the crown to a depth of 10cm (4") below water level. In favourable conditions, Houttuynia will spread freely, but can be easily contained if planted in containers.

More Info

Feed and water Houttuynia plants regularly until fully established. Lift and divide overcrowded clumps of Houttuynia in Spring to maintain plant vigour.
