Heuchera americana 'Dale's Strain' - CORAL BELLS 'DALE'S STRAIN'

Product Code: HEU-AME-SALSTR
Shipping: Calculated at Checkout
$8.99

'Dale's Strain' is a seed strain selected for the lovely silver marbling pattern and reddish veins on the leaves. It's a surprisingly stable-colored cultivar. The flowers are small, whitish and insignificant, blooming in mid to late summer. The fall color is orange, orange-red. This clumping perennial provides ground-covering growth.

It's heat and humidity tolerant and handles full sun with more consistent moisture (in hot regions, some afternoon shade is better). Tolerates droughts and dry shade. Don't plant it in wet soils or wet clay. It is recommended to divide and rejuvenate the clumps after about 3-4 years.

Good edging plant and ground cover, looks best if planted in groups or masses. The attractive foliage and airy flower panicles shine in rock gardens, perennial borders, wildflower gardens, open woodland gardens, dappled shade gardens, deer resistant plantings, and low-maintenance landscaping. It grows well under the canopy of big hardwood trees; substitute it for your lawn in difficult spots, such as dry half shade or full shade.

    I purchased this locally in July, when we were experiencing drought and daily temperatures in the 90s. This and the other plants I bought were in great condition when I took them home, and are all doing well now after making it through the severe weather.
