    Another Wow!...Incredibly ruffled leaves, chocolate on the top, burgundy underneath, are topped by 30" purple spikes of tiny flowers peeking through the ruffles. PSh-Sh/M PP8965 EU3954

    A clump forming, evergreen perennial. In spring tall spikes of small white flowers appear. A delightful foliage plant for light shade. Remove old leaves as required and provide with plenty of food and organic matter.

    Heavily ruffled leaves of rich chocolate on top and deep burgundy on the bottom create a warm contrast of color. Thousands of small purplish flowers on strong purple spikes continue the show. One of our first and finest, and still in amazing demand, this heat/humidity tolerant Heuchera thrives in gardens across the country and has become a landscaper's staple.
