Description
Electric Plum Coral Bells is a standout perennial prized for its dramatic foliage and striking seasonal color. Large leaves emerge nearly black in spring before maturing to an intense electric purple with bold black veining that commands attention in borders, rock gardens, or containers. In summer, dainty fuchsia-pink flowers rise on black stems, adding vibrant contrast and drawing hummingbirds to the garden. With its refined texture and evergreen nature, this Heuchera variety provides lasting interest through all seasons.
Versatile and low-maintenance, Electric Plum Coral Bells thrives in full sun to full shade, making it adaptable to a wide range of garden settings. It forms a dense, low mound of foliage that serves beautifully as edging, groundcover, or a container “filler” in mixed plantings. Reaching 10 inches tall (18 inches with blooms) and spreading to 18 inches wide, this compact perennial performs best in moist, well-drained soil with consistent watering during summer heat. Hardy in zones 4–8, it remains an enduring garden favorite for vibrant color and texture year after year.
