Overview
Heuchera, commonly known as Coral Bells, is a versatile herbaceous perennial grown primarily for its striking foliage. Available in a wide range of leaf colours, including shades of lime, amber, purple, silver, green and near-black, Heucheras provide long-lasting interest from spring through winter. In late spring and summer, slender stems of small bell-shaped flowers rise above the foliage, adding lightness and movement to the display. As this product is supplied as a mixed selection, foliage colour and variety will vary.
Why We Love It
Heucheras are valued for their colourful foliage, which provides interest long after many flowering plants have faded. Their compact size makes them ideal for edging borders, underplanting shrubs, brightening containers or adding texture to woodland-style gardens.
