Bronze Wave Coral Bells

Large bold foliage and vivid color, the Bronze Wave Coral Bells (Heuchera villosa 'Bronze Wave') is a larger, robust selection of Coral Bells with bronzy-purple foliage! Deeply cut, textured leaves have a two-tone effect, new growth is maroon to purple while older growth changes to green with purple undertones!

Pollinators love the tall pinkish-white blooms, held on thin stems, looking so dainty above the bold leaves! The long-lasting blossoms are favorites of pollinators and Hummingbirds alike! But if you wish to maintain these as foliage ornamentals, the flowers can be snipped off and added to bouquets!

Exceptionally cold-hardy throughout USDA growing zones 3 to 8, Heuchera, also known as Alum Root, are adaptable shade garden plants that are fantastic for novice and busy gardeners! Often evergreen to semi-evergreen in warmer climates and mild winters, these are heat and humidity-resistant and highly adaptable low-growing plants!

Planting and Application:
