Description
12-18" tall x 9-12" wide. 'Black Sea' Coral Bell's burgundy-black, textured foliage adds a touch of drama wherever it grows. This unusual perennial performs well in partial shade to full sun (in the north) with medium moisture. Vigorous mounds of dark foliage are striking planted in groups or sprinkled amongst other perennials. Its tiny, bell-shaped ivory flowers on sturdy stems appear in mid-summer and hummingbirds love them. Plant Heuchera in well-drained, compost-enriched soil, where the moisture is moderate. Once established it’s a water-thrifty plant, ready to provide easy-care color to your garden. Lovely with Ferns, Sedges, Hosta, and Columbine.
