Heuchera ‘Venus’
Fancy-leaf Coral Bells |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.267.910
As a group, the Hybrid Coral Bells offer the gardener a tremendous new range of foliage colours, especially for shady areas. In this selection the scalloped leaves are silver-white with an attractive pattern of dark-green veins. Sprays of ivory-white flowers appear in late spring. The habit is compact and mounding, ideal for edging or growing in containers, also nice in the rock garden. 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. Part of the “Planet Collection” from The Netherlands. One of the brightest silver forms available.
