Plant Details:
Plant Type: Perennial
Plant Family: Saxifragaceae
Plant Description: This heat tolerant perennial grows mounds of lobed, purple, semi-evergreen leaves with silver markings. It prefers growing in the shade, but can handle some sun. Pink flowers bloom in the spring, but the leaves are its best feature.
Maintenance:
Maintenance Type: Perennial - Evergreen
Plant Care: Perennial - Evergreen (soft-stemmed plants that keep their leaves and color during winter): Remove spent blooms to promote rebloom later. To avoid winter stress, wait until spring to identify what portions of the plant are still alive and then remove the rest.
Special Considerations: Heucheras may respond better to having the dead foliage pulled out rather than cut back.
