Heuchera 'Peach Crisp' (Coral Bells)
Coral Bells 'Peach Crisp', Alum Root 'Peach Crisp', Coral Flower 'Peach Crisp'
With bright peach color all summer long, Heuchera 'Peach Crisp' is a lovely variety of Coral Bells for the garden. It creates tight mounds of heavily ruffled foliage, emerging pinkish-red, then fading to shades of peach or apricot, and finally turning green.
- In late spring - early summer, panicles of small, bell-shaped, white flowers bloom on slender stems rising up to 15 in. (37 cm) above the semi-evergreen foliage. This Heuchera is prized by gardeners for its drought, heat and humidity tolerance.
- This clump-forming perennial forms basal mounds, up to 6 in. tall (15cm) with a spread of 14 in. (35 cm). A sturdy performer that is not only easy to grow, but also requires little maintenance and is virtually pest and disease free!
- Performs best in part shade, in rich, humusy, medium moisture, well-drained soils. If grown in full sun, make sure the soil remains consistently moist or the foliage might decline. Thrives in dry shade, once established. It is attractive to butterflies and often ignored by deer.
- A spectacular addition to beds, borders, rock gardens, woodland gardens and is ideal as groundcover, edger along paths or in containers. Fabulous when planted in groups!
- Divide clumps in spring every 3-4 years.
- Remove stems of faded flowers to promote additional bloom. Apply winter mulch after the ground freezes to help prevent root heaving.
