Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Heuchera ‘Berry Smoothie’ features striking, rose-pink leaves with ruffled edges. Airy wands of white bell flowers appear in late Spring. They are very attractive to hummingbirds and butterflies alike. This hardy evergreen perennial grows with a compact, mounding habit. An excellent groundcover for dry shade. Heuchera will tolerate full sun in more Northern areas as long as adequate moisture is provided.

Amazing rose-pink spring color on the bold leaves of this 18"h x 28"w turns to amazing purple rose during the rest of the season; a perfect combo of heat loving H. villosa and cold tolerant H. americana. PSh/M PPAF

Amazing dark raspberry pink/red leaves with slightly creamy, tiny flowers on spikes in middle-spring. Really a stunner mixed in with greens and chartreuses.

Amazing spring colour of rose pink rises on big, bold plants that later in the season offer excellent colours of purple rose to rose pink with subtle silver mottling on large round leaves. A superlative new introduction.

One of our biggest "wow" plants. Originally selected spring color of rose pink, we were pleased to find a big, bold color year round. The large round leaves have colors from purple pink. A delicious blend of heat loving H. villosa and cold tolerant H. americana.
