Heuchera ‘Citronelle’
Fancy-leaf Coral Bells |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.266.080
This hybrid forms a mound of glowing chartreuse-yellow leaves with a hairy texture. Taller sprays of ivory-white flowers rise above in late summer into the autumn. Sturdy in habit, nice for edging borders, in the shady rock garden or in containers. Remove any winter-burned leaves in the spring, otherwise no pruning is required. Protect from afternoon sun. Discovered in France by plant breeder Thierry Delabroye, as a sport of his Heuchera ‘Caramel'. USPP#17934: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
