Notes

'Black Pearl' coral bells (Heuchera 'Black Pearl') is a perennial for borders, containers, and shade gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun to full shade and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. It is evergreen, so it keeps its leaves through winter. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and birds visit the plant.

Pairs well with Astilbe, Japanese forest grass, and Lenten rose.
