Heuchera ‘Black Taffeta’


Fancy-leaf Coral Bells

USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.266.840


As a group, the Hybrid Coral Bells offer the gardener a tremendous new range of foliage colours. This selection forms a mound of large, glossy, heavily ruffled, almost-black leaves. Sprays of pink flowers on short stems in spring. Great vigor. In warm regions this is best in part to full shade. Excellent in the border, for edging, or in tubs and mixed containers. Foliage should not be trimmed back in the fall, but plants may be tidied up in spring by removing any withered or tired-looking leaves. Evergreen. USPPP: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Registered with COPF.
