Heuchera 'Plum Pudding' (PBR)
coral bells
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. Heuchera 'Plum Pudding' is perfect for a bed with rich purples, lilac, soft pinks and silvers.
How to care for Heuchera Plum Pudding (PBR):
Plant 30-45cm (12-18in) apart in moderately fertile, moist, but well-drained soil, incorporating compost to improve drainage and fertility. Keep well watered and remove tatty foliage in autumn.
Lift and divide clumps every couple of years in early autumn and re-plant with the crown just above the surface of the soil. Apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of well-rotted organic matter around the base of the plant in spring.

This perennial is semi-evergreen so it can lose some of its leaves in winter. In colder regions or more exposed gardens, it may lose them all, but then fresh new growth appears again in spring.
