Description
Heuchera 'Amethyst Myst' (15) Quarts
Common Name: Coral Bells
Zone 3 to 8,
Full sun to full shade, depending on zone.
Plants reach 8 inches tall and 17 inches wide.

Blackish-purple leaves with a silvery-blue overlay, extensive black veining, and the foliage appears dusted with a fog of silver makes it unique. The plant seems to glow with an amethyst mist from a distance, the characteristic for which it is named. New foliage is deep maroon-purple and all leaves have rich royal purple undersides. Withstands light frost and continues to perform with shorter days and cooler weather.

This coral bells cultivar is a clump-forming perennial. Rounded, lobed, long-petioled leaves (2 to 4 inches wide) form a basal mound (to 9 inches tall) which may spread 15 to 24 inches wide. Tiny, cream-pink, bell-shaped flowers appear in late spring to early summer on slender, wiry stems rising well above the foliage mound (typically 18 to 26 inches tall).

Heucheras will perform best in organically rich, humus, medium wet, well-drained soil with a neutral pH. Performs well in full sun in the north, but prefers some afternoon shade in the south. If grown in full sun, consistent moisture is particularly important. They grow most vigorously and have the stongest colors when grown in partial shade (preferably afternoon shade). They can also be grown in full shade but their growth rate will be very slow.

Coral bells are easy to grow and blend easily with most other perennials in the landscape. Because of their low, mounding habit, they are often used as edging along paths or in containers. Remove stems of faded flowers to encourage additional bloom. Foliage is essentially evergreen in warm winter climates, but the amount of retained foliage color in cold winter climates depends upon the temperatures. In cold winter climates, winter mulch applied after the ground freezes will help prevent root heaving. Clumps may be divided in the spring every 3 to 4 years
