Notes
'Peppermint Spice' coral bells (Heuchera 'Peppermint Spice') is a perennial for borders, containers, shade gardens, and woodland plantings. 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 soil of most types. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. The plant is evergreen and drought tolerant, so it stays low maintenance. Bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds visit the blooms.
Pairs well with Astilbe, Lenten rose, and Fringed bleeding heart.
