Heucherella

Heucherella, commonly known as Foamy Bells, is a genus of perennial plants that is a hybrid cross between Heuchera and Tiarella. These plants are celebrated for their attractive foliage and delicate flowers.

Size: Heucherella exhibits a mounding growth habit with a low to medium height, typically reaching about 1-2 feet (30-60 cm) tall and wide.

Foliage: The foliage consists of heart or palm-shaped leaves that come in a wide range of colors, from deep purples and reds to vibrant greens, often with striking patterns or veining.

Flowers: The flowers are small, delicate, and borne on tall, wiry stems that rise above the foliage. They are usually white or pink and appear in late spring to early summer.

Hardiness: Heucherella is quite hardy, suitable for USDA zones 4-9, and can tolerate a variety of climates.

Uses: Heucherella is often used in borders, rock gardens, woodland gardens, or containers. Its attractive foliage provides color and interest even when the plant is not in bloom.

Pollinators: The flowers attract a variety of pollinators, including bees and butterflies.

Culture: Heucherella plants prefer well-drained soil and can tolerate a range of light conditions, from full sun to part shade, depending on the variety. They are moderately drought-tolerant but prefer consistent moisture for optimal growth.

A key fact about Heucherella is its year-round appeal. In addition to the spring and summer flowers, the foliage provides color and texture throughout the year, often changing colors in different seasons or temperatures. Some varieties also have semi-evergreen or evergreen tendencies, providing winter interest in the garden. Overall, Heucherella is a versatile and attractive plant that adds long-lasting color and interest to various garden settings.
