Heuchera ‘Ruby Veil’
Fancy-leaf Coral Bells |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.267.340
As a group, the Hybrid Coral Bells offer the gardener a tremendous new range of foliage colours, especially for shady areas. This selection forms a sturdy mound of large ruby-red leaves, mottled with silver. Sprays of creamy flowers appear in June. More sun tolerant than other selections. Excellent in the border, for edging, or in tubs and mixed containers. Foliage should not be trimmed back in the fall, but plants may be tidied up in spring by removing any withered or tired-looking leaves. Evergreen.
