Coral Bells

Coral Bells, also known as Heuchera or Alumroot, come in a variety of flower and leaf colors.
They prefer full sun to partial shade. Depending of the variety, the dainty flowers can grow from 15" to 36" tall. The leaves at the base of the plant grow to a height of 12" - 24" tall.

Coral Bells are blooming now. Cutting off fading flowers and wilted leaves at the base of the plant will keep these flowers blooming well into the summer.

Water only when the top 1" of soil is dry. These flowers don't like to be over watered.


Divide these in the spring every 3-4 years, discard any older woody growth.
