Heuchera ‘Veil of Passion’
Fancy-leaf Coral Bells |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.267.900
As a group, the Hybrid Coral Bells offer the gardener a tremendous new range of foliage colours. This selection is one of the darkest forms available, with near-black leaves contrasting beautifully against sprays of pink flowers. An excellent choice for rock gardens, edging, the perennial border and in tubs or containers. Remove faded flower stems at the base to encourage repeat blooming. Foliage should not be trimmed back in the fall, but plants may be tidied up in spring by removing any brown or tired-looking leaves. USPP#12166: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Registered with COPF.
