coral bells
- Position: full sun or partial shade
- Soil: fertile, moist or well-drained soil
- Rate of growth: average
- Flowering period: June to August
- Hardiness: fully hardy
Lobed, plum-purple leaves with darker veining and a light dusting of silver, form neat, slightly spreading mounds, which add colour and diversity towards the front of a border. Perfect for a bed with rich purples, lilac, soft pinks and silvers. - Garden care: Heucheras do not like dry soil. Remove tatty foliage in autumn. Lift and divide clumps every couple of years in early autumn and replant with the crown just above the surface of the soil. Apply a generous 5-7 cm (2-3 in) mulch of well-rotted organic matter around the crown of the plant in spring.
