ELECTRIC PLUM CORAL BELLS
Bring "high-voltage" color to your landscape with the stunning Heuchera 'Electric Plum'! This dynamic Coral Bell commands attention with its intense, ever-changing foliage. New leaves emerge nearly black before maturing into a vivid, electric plum-purple accented by dramatic, smoky-black veining. Bred with Heuchera villosa parentage, it offers fantastic resistance to heat and humidity, ensuring it looks spectacular even in southern climates.
In summer, the show continues as tall, near-black stems carry delicate clusters of bright fuchsia-pink flowers, providing a stunning contrast to the dark foliage and inviting hummingbirds to your garden. Ideal for borders, containers, or mass planting, 'Electric Plum' provides year-round, deer-resistant color with minimal maintenance.
Coral bells are a great low-maintenance perennial and are easy to take care of. They blend well with most perennials and have a low, mounding habit that is perfect for container gardens and tucked between other plants in a shaded garden. They prefer partial shade and well-drained, moist rich soil. They do not tolerate clay or acidic soils. You can cut back their flower stalks in fall to direct energy into their foliage.
