Marmalade Coral Bells
Heuchera x 'Marmalade'
Marmalade Coral Bells is an evergreen herbaceous perennial with a mounding habit grown for its dramatic basal foliage. The round-lobed leaves emerge various shades ranging from amber to russet and mature to deep gold with hot pink undersides. Airy clusters of tiny pinkish-white bell-like flowers bloom on vivid red spires in summer attracting butterflies. Blooms best in partial sun and moist well-drained soils. Marmalade has good powdery mildew resistance.
