Get To Know Foamy Bells At Nature Hills Nursery!

Foamy Bells (xHeucherella) are a hybrid cross between Coral Bells and Foam Flowers but seem to be over-the-top versions of both! Keeping the fancy flowers and leaves of its parent plants and showing off in the part sun or shade garden, these perennials will have you looking twice!

The showy spikes of airy, fizzy-looking bubblegum pink flowers appear in big bottlebrush clusters, like Foam Flowers, while others appear in dainty bell-shaped wands like their Coral Bells family. Combining the best of both worlds with their colorful, maple-leaf-shaped foliage that is typically two-toned and always vibrant!

The blossoms easily charm every pollinator, bee, butterfly, and Hummingbird in the area! Appearing in late spring, the mildly fragrant blossoms add to the trinity of beauty created by these unique plants!

Caring For Foamy Bells

Heucherella thrives in partial shade and full shade, having more color in more sun but doing better in more shade in hotter climates. You'll get more blooms in more sun too, but in sun or shade, Foamy Bells bloom for many weeks!

Handling humidity and heat, as well as cold winters throughout USDA plant hardiness zones 4 to 9, this Perennial plant is easy and low-maintenance! Deer, pests, and diseases even seem to skip over these hardy little show-offs!

Requiring moist humus-rich, well-drained soil, Foamy Bells are not particular on soil type, just be sure they won't ever dry out. A good 3-4 inch deep layer of arborist mulch will help with that by maintaining soil moisture and insulating the roots.

Prune these little plants in the very early spring to clear away old foliage and freshen up the mounds. You can deadhead the flowers as soon as they fade or snip the blossoms for indoor bouquets if you'd prefer to keep Foamy Bells as a foliage plant exclusively!
