Heuchera ‘Brandon Pink’
Pink Coral Bells |
USDA Zone: 2-9 |
Plant number: 1.267.090
These are the old-fashioned style of Coral Bells, grown for their bright display of flowers in early summer. Plants form a low mound of rounded deep-green leaves, bearing upright spikes with loads of small coral-pink bells. Bred by Agriculture Canada in Manitoba, and selected especially for harsh prairie conditions. Excellent for cutting. Flowers also are attractive to hummingbirds. Terrific for edging, in the rock garden, or in tubs. Remove spent flower spikes to encourage more buds to form. Plants may be divided every 2 to 3 years in spring or early fall.
