Tulsa Plant Recipe #20: Lime Rickey Heuchera & Blue Speedwell

If you’re looking for early spring color in your Tulsa garden, this plant combination delivers something truly unique.

Lime Rickey Heuchera holds its vibrant foliage through the winter, providing structure and color even in colder months. When Georgia Blue Speedwell begins to bloom, its electric blue flowers create a striking contrast against the bright green leaves of the heuchera.

This pairing offers a rare and beautiful display early in the season—just when most gardens are still waking up.

Both plants prefer gentle sunlight, especially morning sun from the east until about midday, making them perfect for partially shaded areas.

As new foliage grows on the heuchera, you can lightly trim away older leaves at the base to keep the plant looking fresh and healthy.

For even more seasonal interest, consider adding early blooming tulips to this combination. Together, they create a layered, colorful display that signals the start of spring in a vibrant way.
