Coral Bells 'Black Beauty', Alum Root 'Black Beauty', Coral Flower 'Black Beauty'
Heuchera ‘Black Beauty’ (Coral Bells) is a compact, clump-forming, semi-evergreen to evergreen perennial sporting a striking foliage of glossy, dark red almost black, ruffled leaves. In late spring to early to summer, panicles of small, bell-shaped, white flowers bloom on slender stems rising up to 16 in. (40 cm) above the foliage. This bold heuchera combines extremely well with a wide range of colors and helps create wonderful plant combinations in gardens or pots. A sturdy performer that is not only easy to grow, but also requires little maintenance and is virtually pest and disease free. Perfect for mixed borders, mass plantings and containers.
