Notes
Coral bells (Heuchera hybrids) is a perennial for borders, shade gardens, containers, and woodland settings. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil. Its chartreuse foliage forms a neat mound 12 to 24 inches tall. Blooms open in late spring and again in early to late summer, and they attract hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by.
Pairs well with Foam flower and Christmas fern.
