Perfect for hiding the leggy stems of rose bushes, Heuchera (Coral Bells) make soft ground covers around their bases, their mounds of scalloped-edged foliage adding texture and interest to mixed borders. Here, Heuchera 'Marmalade' with its maple-shaped leaves with honey, amber, or even pale green overtones, creates a lovely display with the delightfully fragrant, apricot rosettes of English Rose 'Grace'.
