More About Heuchera ‘Georgia Peach’

Heuchera ‘Georgia Peach’ is celebrated for its soft peach-to-coral foliage that brings warmth and brightness to shaded gardens. The leaves emerge with peach and rose tones in spring, deepen slightly through summer, and often intensify again in fall, giving the plant multi-season interest.

Unlike many warm-toned heucheras that struggle in heat or humidity, ‘Georgia Peach’ was specifically selected for superior performance in hot, humid climates, making it especially reliable in the Southeast.

Why We Like It (Our Trials)

In our trials, ‘Georgia Peach’ has shown outstanding durability and color consistency through summer heat and humidity. It forms a full, uniform mound and resists leaf scorch far better than many pastel-colored heucheras.

We especially appreciate how easy it is to design with. The peach tones pair beautifully with silver foliage, dark purples, deep greens, and soft pinks, making it a natural choice for both containers and mixed shade borders.

Georgia Peach vs. Other Heuchera Varieties

‘Georgia Peach’ brings soft peach, amber, and rose tones that shift with temperature and light, offering dynamic seasonal interest. Compared to the bold reds like Fire Alarm and Forever Red, it is gentler and more transitional in color. Georgia Peach bridges warm and cool palettes, pairing naturally with Berry Smoothie, Forever Purple, and Northern Exposure™ Silver .

Georgia Peach is especially effective at softening darker plantings anchored by varieties like Obsidian or Black Forest Cake. This variety is a favorite for gardeners who want warmth without intensity. Georgia Peach excels in woodland gardens, foundation plantings, and mixed containers where subtle color variation is appreciated. Its changing tones add depth and movement throughout the season.
