Notes
'Frosty' coralbells (Heuchera sanguinea 'Frosty') is a perennial for borders, rock gardens, and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. It forms a clumping mound up to 18 inches tall and 12 to 18 inches wide. Bright red flowers appear in spring and again in summer, and hummingbirds, bees, and birds visit them.
