Heuchera ‘Shamrock’
Fancy-leaf Coral Bells |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.267.870
As a group, the Hybrid Coral Bells offer the gardener a tremendous new range of foliage colours. This unique selection produces very tall sprays of chartreuse-green flowers, over a low mound of green leaves, overlaid with a silvery blush. Superb as a cut flower and interesting in the sunny border or in containers. Remove faded flower stems at the base to encourage repeat blooming. Foliage should not be trimmed back in the fall, but plants may be tidied up in spring by removing any brown or tired-looking leaves.
