Heuchera caramel ® / 2L
Heuchera 'Caramel'®
Confirmed format: 2 Litre Pot
Plant Highlights: Warm caramel, apricot and amber foliage for year-round colour • Evergreen, compact clump-forming habit • Airy clusters of small creamy-white flowers in late spring and summer • Excellent for borders, woodland gardens, edging and containers
Overview
Heuchera 'Caramel'® is an evergreen herbaceous perennial prized for its richly coloured foliage, which emerges in warm shades of caramel, apricot and amber before developing deeper golden tones through the seasons. The softly rounded leaves form a neat, compact mound, providing lasting colour and texture in borders, woodland-style planting and patio containers. In late spring and summer, slender stems rise above the foliage carrying airy clusters of small creamy-white flowers, adding lightness to the display while allowing the colourful leaves to remain the main attraction.
Why We Love It
The warm amber and apricot foliage brings a distinct colour palette to the garden, pairing beautifully with purple, blue and silver-leaved plants. Its evergreen habit ensures reliable interest throughout the year, even when many perennials are dormant.
