Heuchera ‘Tara’
Fancy-leaf Coral Bells |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.266.390
This European hybrid is a total gem. It forms a small mound of pointy-edged golden-yellow leaves overlaid with red in spring, then becoming all yellow during summer. Sprays of ivory flowers appear in mid to late summer. Ideal as a border edging, in the woodland garden, rock garden or containers. Remove any winter-burned leaves in the spring, otherwise no pruning is required. Developed in France by plant breeder Thierry Delabroye, using Heuchera villosa in his breeding lines. USPPP: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
