Heuchera ‘Creole Nights’
Fancy-leaf Coral Bells |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.266.810
As a group, the Hybrid Coral Bells offer the gardener a tremendous new range of foliage colours. This selection forms a mound of large, glossy, almost-black leaves. It produces bigger leaves and has a larger habit than H. ‘Obsidian’ making it an excellent landscape plant. Sprays of white flowers on short stems May through August. In warm regions this is best in part to full shade. 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. USPP#24087: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Registered with COPF.
