Heuchera ‘Dark Secret’
Fancy-leaf Coral Bells |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.266.400
This hybrid Coral Bells selection is a terrific choice for adding a touch of colour towards the front of a border. The leaves are heavily ruffled in a deep purple-bronze with a slight silver sheen. Sprays of cream flowers appear in early to mid summer. Fairly sun tolerant, but protect from hot afternoon sun in warm summer regions. Remove any winter-burned leaves in the spring, otherwise no pruning is required. USPP#20683: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
