x Heucherella 'Blue Ridge'
Foamy Bells 'Blue Ridge'
x Heucherella is a cross between Heuchera and Tiarella, and shows some characteristics of both parents. It is an evergreen perennial grown primarily for their attractive evergreen foliage but they do produce flowers too. Height of plants can vary depending on the cultivar and they have varying leaf sizes in many different, stunning, colours and shades. If planted in shade, the foliage will be more pronounced than if they are in full sun. 'Blue Ridge' has large silvery blue-green leaves and red veins. In Spring, it produces spikes of white bell-shaped flowers.
