Foamy Bells Solar Eclipse in the GardenTags plant encyclopedia

x Heucherella 'Solar Eclipse'

 

Foamy Bells 'Solar Eclipse'

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. 'Solar Eclipse' forms an attractive carpet of colourful foliage. The scalloped leaves develop to a rich burgundy-brown with a slim, lime green border as it matures.
