Monrovia® Ruby Tuesday Heuchera is an evergreen herbaceous perennial with a mounding habit grown for its dramatic basal foliage. The ruffled lobed leaves emerge ruby red then age to deep merlot red with silver frosting. Airy clusters of tiny creamy white bell-like flowers bloom on dark red spires in summer attracting butterflies. Blooms best in partial sun and moist well-drained soils.
