    Zn 4. Thick leathery brught red leaves.

    By: Little Prince of Oregon

    A five alarm version of the immensely popular Heuchera 'Autumn Leaves'. Super vigorous, thick, leathery, glossy, red leaves pile up into a delightful mound of bold foliage that you can't miss! 'Fire Alarm' changes colours throughout the season. It complements almost every section of the colour palette and can stand on its own without question. The reddest foliage of any Heuchera and larger growing than 'Fire Chief'.

    Bold red leaves change tones with the seasons. Leathery mounding foliage can pull together a container or as filler for a garden bed.
