Heuchera 'Bilberry' – Coral Bells

Heuchera 'Bilberry' – Coral Bells (Alum Root)

A lovely foliage perennial from the Indian Summer Series, 'Bilberry' forms compact, clumping tufts of glossy, deep purple-black leaves with reddish undertones and gently ruffled, lobed edges. Airy white flowers rise above the dark foliage from spring into summer, creating attractive contrast and drawing bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. Evergreen to semi-evergreen depending on climate, this coral bells brings rich color to rock and woodland gardens, borders, edging, and pots, and its flowering stems are useful for cutting. Deer, coastal conditions, and clay tolerance make it a practical garden choice. Grow in sun to partial shade with moderate water and well-drained soil; afternoon shade is helpful in hot locations.
